A Stolen Christmas at MATCH

This December 9 the Houston Tidelanders Chorus, an all-male a cappella group, will share their charming original story “A Stolen Christmas.” Written by playwright, Jim “Hawk” Halcarz, a 20-year veteran of the Tidelanders, the “Grinchy” baritone put the holiday festivities in jeopardy. But never fear, the chorus keeps the spirit of the performance alive with holiday favorites including “Jingle Bell Rock,” “O Holy Night,” “White Christmas,” and more. A new arrangement of “Candy Cane Christmas” created by tenor section leader Mark Smith captures the child-like wonder of Christmas and all of its joys. Additionally, Space City Chorus will join the Tidelanders on-stage, plus, the Barbershop Harmony Society’s 2016 International Quartet Champion, Forefront, will share their dynamic sounds on the holiday program. This is the 70th Annual Christmas program performed by the Houston Tidelanders. The “Grinchy” baritone finds joy at the end of the program and so will the audience after singing along to several special holiday songs. What better way to kick-off a celebration for the most wonderful time of the year?
