Greater Freeport Community Chorus presents their Holiday concerts featuring “A Ceremony of Carols” by Benjamin Britten's along with songs and carols from around the world. The program highlights music from cultures and communities around the world and shows how music can help foster peace.

The Augusta Symphony Orchestra invites you to celebrate the magic of the holidays with two performances at South Parish Church, 9 Church Street in Augusta. Join us on Saturday, December 13 at 7:00 p.m. or Sunday, December 14 at 3:00 p.m. for a festive program filled with timeless classics and holiday favorites.

Under the direction of Conductor and Music Director Jinwook Park, the ASO will present a concert filled with warmth, variety, and festive spirit. The concert begins with Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 2—a showcase of Baroque virtuosity featuring Sarah Heimberg (trumpet), Michael Albert (recorder), Anne McKee (violin), and Necia Enoch (oboe) as soloists.

The celebration continues with Tchaikovsky’s beloved Nutcracker Suite, bringing the enchanting sounds of the season to life—from the graceful “Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy” to the exuberant “Trepak.” Audiences will also enjoy Christmas at the Movies, a lively medley of favorite film scores that capture the spirit of the holidays on the silver screen.

To conclude the concert, the orchestra will be joined by singers from Coda Chorus for a rousing performance of Handel’s Hallelujah Chorus—a triumphant finale that’s sure to lift hearts and voices alike.

Experience the warmth, wonder, and joy of the season with the Augusta Symphony Orchestra. This holiday tradition is perfect for the whole family and a beautiful way to celebrate the music that brings us together.

As always, there is no admission fee for these concerts. Donations are gratefully accepted.

All who enter the Legion Hall doors on a Breakfast Buffet Sunday, will get a great meal for a fair price/donation, get to see old friends and/or family, or meet someone interesting for the first time. The menu items have satisfied many folks over the years, and I have no doubt that this year will be no different. So come and enjoy the Legion Buffet Breakfast this season, enjoy the food, enjoy the camaraderie, and learn how you (Yes, You) can play a key role in this year's breakfast season - or next year's season. There are a number of very important people who make these breakfasts a success each year, if you have any interest in becoming a volunteer or member of the breakfast crew - ask for the least important person in the mix (Christopher) when you arrive for breakfast. These breakfast buffets take place every other Sunday starting on April 2, 2025.
