The GRAMMY-nominated Lorelei Ensemble presents the winter program "Frost and Fire" on Saturday, December 13 at 7:30 pm.

"Frost and Fire" marks the holidays through a uniquely-Lorelei lens. The world-premiere program will include new arrangements of traditional tunes by Greg Brown, Jocelyn Hagen, and Laura Jobin Acosta, Scott Ordway’s North Woods, and the world premiere of the winner of Lorelei’s recent call for scores.

Journey through Victorian Baltimore in this local reimagining of the beloved tale. Join us for a heartwarming experience that blends tradition, community, and the magic of the season — perfect for audiences of all ages.

The show runs November 29-December 23.
