We are sad to report that the Leonard Bearstein Symphony Orchestra will not be performing its annual holiday concert this winter in Founders Hall.
They made the announcement October 15th on Facebook.
Full text of announcement:
It is with great disappointment, The Leonard Bearstein Symphony Orchestra announces the cancellation of most of our scheduled 2020 Holiday Tour. The ONLY appearance for us this season will be at Berkeley Mall in Goldsboro, NC. Those performances will be during regular mall hours and we look forward to seeing you there.
The scheduled performances at Bank Of America Corporate Center in Charlotte, NC… Valley View Mall in Roanoke, VA… Southpark Mall in Colonial Heights, VA… & Grand Avenue Mall in Milwaukee, WI are all CANCELLED for the 2020 Season. We thank you for your continued support for over 20 years, at most of these locations, & we look forward to being back in 2021.
The Maestro
We’ll all miss the bears, but look forward to seeing them again in 2021.
If you aren’t familiar with the Leonard Bearstein, every year these animatronic musicians, under the inspired direction of Maestro Leonard Bearstein, put on a 45 minute long set, including their interpretation of holiday songs like “Jingle Bells,” “Feliz Navidad,” “We Wish You A Merry Christmas,” and “Have a Holly Jolly Christmas.”
They repeat the set many times a day, throughout the holiday season.
