The Cambridge Symphony Orchestra returns to Arlington’s Town Hall to celebrate the holiday season on Sunday, December 14 at 4:00pm. Dress festively and warm up those vocal cords for our sing-along.

Featuring a very special visit by Santa himself!

Join us for Boston Baroque’s celebrated holiday tradition and ring in the New Year with internationally renowned conductor Marc Minkowski leading the orchestra in a festive program featuring Handel’s complete Water Music, with additional repertoire to be announced.

Composed in 1717 for King George I’s royal barge outing on the River Thames, Handel’s Water Music is one of the most iconic and joyous works of the Baroque era. Brimming with lively dance rhythms, regal fanfares, and infectious energy, the three suites that make up Water Music were designed to be heard outdoors, captivating the royal court and Londoners alike as they floated along the river. Nearly three centuries later, the work remains a timeless symbol of celebration, vitality, and musical brilliance—perfect for welcoming a new year.
