Marion Philharmonic Orchestra Presents “Christmas Jubilee”

The Marion Philharmonic Orchestra will present its holiday concert on Saturday, December 9, 2017, at 7:30 p.m. The MPO is proud to present “Christmas Jubilee” in one of the most fitting and unique venues this season, the 94-year-old sanctuary of the First United Methodist Church in downtown Marion. The concert will feature guest conductor Thomas Elefant who will lead the MPO in many Christmas classics. You’ll hear LeRoy Anderson’s festive “Sleigh Ride,” selections from the Nutcracker Suite, and the LeRoy Anderson’s Christmas favorite, “A Christmas Festival.” The program will be followed by a reception where guests may enjoy snacks and even more Christmas music provided by Gardner Stewart, a senior from Taylor University.
