Our December concert, “Winter is Coming,” will take place at 7 pm on Tuesday, December 6 in the Langley auditorium. The concert is free and will be video recorded. 

Students are required to wear Langley Orchestra formalwear – either the Langley Orchestra black velvet bodice and green taffeta dress or a black tuxedo with white shirt, black bowtie and black cummerbund. Please note that solid black socks and solid black dress shoes are also required.

All students are required to attend concert-day rehearsals. The rehearsal schedule is:

Please note that during this concert we will need to take photos of each of our 3 orchestras (in front of the stage on choral risers) for use at Carnegie Hall as well as for other purposes. All orchestra students are asked to participate in their group photo (Philharmonic, Concert, or Symphonic). Photos will be taken by our Concert Photographer Rania Razek and will be made available on our Shutterfly site for everyone.

Preconcert dinner orders due Wednesday 11/23!

Students wishing to partake in our special preconcert “Winter is Coming” dinner on Tuesday, December 6th — make sure you are signed up by Wednesday, November 23rd! Sign up and pay $15 (plus convenience fee) at CheddarUp. We will feast on IKEA’s world-renowned Swedish meatball (or plantball) dinner plate to coordinate with our Scandinavian “Winter is Coming” concert theme. The dinner, served buffet-style, comes complete with beef and pork meatballs (or plant balls), cream sauce, mashed potatoes, seasonal vegetables, and Lingonberry jam. This meal can accommodate peanut and tree nut allergies, as well as vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free dietary needs, so please be sure to check out the drop-down menu options and specify restrictions in the form. We will also provide a hot chocolate bar with festive toppings! Please note that IKEA has a firm deadline for ordering so we cannot accept late dinner orders this time around.

We would also appreciate volunteers for food donations and help serving dinner/hot chocolate and/or staffing our hospitality tables in Langley Hall just before the concert. Please consider helping us ensure our concert days are an amazing experience for not only our students, but our entire orchestra community. Please sign up at the SignUpGenius.

We look forward to seeing you at the concert!
