[LEXINGTON, Kentucky] – Celebrate the magic of the holiday season with two public performances of this year’s Alltech Celebration of Song on Sunday, Dec. 15, at 2:30 p.m. and 5 p.m. at the Alltech Arena at the Kentucky Horse Park.
Amid a stunning display of Christmas decor, Alltech’s 19th annual holiday concert for the Lexington community will feature traditional carols and popular Christmas music performed by the University of Kentucky Opera Theatre, winners of the Alltech Vocal Scholarship Competition, the Uniting Voices Lexington youth choir and other special guest singers.
More than 80 singers will perform in the two concerts, accompanied by a professional orchestra, and audience members will be invited to sing along during classic Christmas favorites. Admission and parking are complimentary, and the event is open to all.
Celebration of Song has been Alltech’s annual holiday gift to the community since 2006. Alltech founder Dr. Pearse Lyons was inspired to spread the joy of the season through music after attending a community Christmas festival while traveling in Brazil.
“We’re excited to celebrate the holidays with our community and with UK Opera Theatre, with whom we partner on several events, including our Vocal Scholarship Competition, which has enabled more than 200 UK students to pursue their musical dreams while receiving an education in the arts,” said Mrs. Deirdre Lyons, Alltech co-founder and director of corporate image, design and construction.
“Christmas is about bringing families and communities together to celebrate the love and joy of the season,” said Dr. Everett McCorvey, director of UK Opera Theatre. “This is our gift to you.”
