After a two-year absence, a beloved Fifth Avenue holiday tradition returns with Carols by Candlelight, our annual celebration of Christmas carols, choral music, and seasonal readings. Step away from the bustle of the season and experience an hour of beautiful choral music and joyful congregational carols in the warm candlelit glow of the beautifully restored Kirkland Chapel. The Fifth Avenue Chamber Choir presents a blend of cherished Christmas favorites and new discoveries, including Benjamin Britten’s beloved Ceremony of Carols with harpist Kristi Shade, celebrating the wonder of Christ’s birth. Following the concert, join us in the gallery for hot cider and cookies as we celebrate the joy of the season together. Purchase Saturday, December 19 in person tickets here.
