The New York Pops celebrated the holidays with Under the Mistletoe, December 21 and 22 in Stern Auditorium / Perelman Stage at Carnegie Hall.
The orchestra, led by Music Director Steven Reineke, was joined by Ashley Brown (Broadway's original Mary Poppins, and Belle in the Broadway version of Disney's Beauty and the Beast) for a concert of classic and contemporary carols including "Deck the Halls," "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year," "Winter Wonderland", and "O Holy Night." Ashley and The New York Pops were also joined by Judith Clurman's Essential Voices USA, who are featured on a Hanukkah Medley, as well as other seasonal favorites.
