The strains of symphonic music will fill the air at the City of Morganton Municipal Auditorium (CoMMA) on Wednesday, Dec. 18, as the Western Piedmont Symphony comes to town to perform its 2024 holiday concert. The regional ensemble will perform an evening of holiday songs and winter music classics.
Led by Maestro Matthew Troy, the Symphony will perform classic Christmas songs, seasonal movie music, and an array of family favorites and holiday hits.
According to Events Manager Amber Austin, doors will open for the festive evening at 6 p.m. for season ticket holders.
“In addition to hearing all of their favorite holiday hits, patrons will be treated to a preshow reception with a variety of refreshments to celebrate the season,” Austin said. Single-event ticket holders can enter at 6:30 p.m.
