Orchestra and Singers Present Free Holiday Concert

The Blair Academy Singers and Orchestra performed a holiday concert at the ArtsQuest Center at Steel Stacks in Bethlehem, PA for an audience of more than 225 alumni, past parents, current parents, prospective students and friends of Blair. The student performers opened with a favorite piece from their fall concert and then moved into a repertoire that included many holiday favorites, combined vocal and instrumental selections such as O Holy Night and Glory to God, and a finale of Deck the Halls and O Come All Ye Faithful. Following the concert, Headmaster Chan Hardwick welcomed guests to a Blair reception, in which Lehigh Valley parents and alumni from the last 60 years were able to reunite and reconnect with Blair.

The Steel Stacks complex opened on May 1, 2011 and is a major part of the effort to revitalize the historic site of the Bethlehem Steel Company. Since opening, Steel Stacks has hosted many musical groups including The Steve Miller Band, Maroon 5, Steely Dan and more. Performing arts Chair and Director of Instrumental Music, Jennifer Pagotto, commented, “It was an honor for our student musicians to perform in such a spectacular venue, and they’re grateful for the support of so many parents and alumni from the region.”
