NYFOS Toasts the Holidays with A GOYISHE CHRISTMAS TO YOU!

By:

New York Festival of Song brings back its beloved program "A Goyishe Christmas to You!" on Monday, December 12, 2016 at 10:00 p.m. at HENRY's Restaurantas part of NYFOS's "After Hours" series.

An instant classic, the program-devised and premiered by Steven Blier at HENRY's in 2010, where it provoked a delirium of excitement-consists of Yuletide songs entirely written by Jewish composers, from the wickedly funny to the meltingly beautiful.

From Frank Loesser's "Baby It's Cold Outside" to Adolphe Adam's "O Holy Night" to Jay Livingston and Ray Evans' "Silver Bells," the popular Yuletide songbook is packed with countless contributions by Jewish songwriters on behalf of their goyishe counterparts. A special feature of this year's show: the Broadway composer Andrew Lippa (The Wild Party, The Adams Family, Big Fish) will sing one of his own songs, "A Little Love."

Now in its sixth incarnation, a stunning caliber of artists join NYFOS Artistic Director and pianist Steven Blier for the intimate and playful occasion.

Lauren Worsham, soprano
MIKAELA BENNETT, soprano
