The Diablo Symphony joins forces with master storyteller Susan Strauss and local choir WomenSing on Saturday, December 2, for a joyous holiday celebration geared for all ages. Beginning at 2:00 p.m. at the Walnut Creek Presbyterian Church, the program includes two movements from Tchaikovsky’s fantasy-like Symphony No. 1 (“Winter Dreams”) as well as the new commissioned work “Winter Stories” by composer Chris Castro, with narration by Susan Strauss. A series of holiday songs by WomenSing (known for its vibrant and beautifully blended sound) and holiday orchestral favorites—from “Hannukah Overture” to “Sleigh Ride”—will delight all. Season and individual concert tickets are available at the Lesher Center for the Arts box office (925-943-7469; 1601 Civic Drive, Walnut Creek) or online through the DSO’s website, http://www.diablosymphony.org/. Discounts for youth and groups of 10+ seniors are available, and children 12 and under are admitted free of charge to all concerts (but need a ticket to have a seat) Tickets will also be available at the door.
