As the year draws to a close, the Greater Miami Symphonic Band invites you to celebrate the season with an uplifting afternoon of festive music and heartfelt joy. “And the Mountains Echoed: Gloria” captures the majesty, warmth, and wonder of the holidays—where music rings through the minds and hearts alike.

From the exuberant sparkle of “A Most Wonderful Christmas” to the jubilant spirit of “Hanukkah Festival” and “Hava Nagila,” the program embraces the many sounds of the season. Broadway takes center stage with “Christmas on Broadway,” and the audience becomes part of the show in our lively Christmas Pops Sing-Along with vocalist, Susie Blank Wolfe. As we bid farewell to the year with “Auld Lang Syne” and “A Christmas Festival,” the Band closes with a timeless favorite—Leroy Anderson’s “Sleigh Ride.”

Join us for an afternoon of joyous celebration, radiant music, and community spirit as the sounds of the season echo through Pinecrest Gardens.
