This festive program, presented by beloved local musician Roger Tincknell, includes songs from around the world that have been bringing people together during the dark of winter. Songs from Asian, African, Native American and other traditions are often interspersed with familiar Chanukah and Christmas songs. Seasonal songs, interactive play party songs and family sing-alongs round out the program bringing warmth and good humor to all ages.  Kids even create a snow storm, shovel the snow and get to enjoy a school ‘snow day’ while singing a song!

A Winter Solstice Celebration is performed on a variety of instruments that may include: guitar, banjo, mandolin, balalaika, harmonica, Irish bodhran, Puerto Rican cuatro, Incan charango, Latin percussion and African drum. Audience participation may include singing, dancing and playing percussion instruments.
