For the 2010 Seattle Men's Chorus (SMC) Holiday Concert, Holiday Glee, the Chorus will take a few cues from the wildly popular TV series Glee. 'For over 30 years the gay choruses in particular have been doing what the show Glee is doing now,' said artistic director Dennis Coleman. 'This show has just made it popular. But, it does call attention to choral music and singing, and however that happens, it's wonderful!' SMC pays homage to Glee, but with a twist. The show's unofficial anthem, 'Don't Stop Believin' has been re-worked as a parody with holiday-themed lyrics and individual Chorus members will represent several of the main characters including Kurt, the openly gay student at McKinley High. Coleman continues, 'There's a lot of 'camp' to Glee, and camp is a gay art form. Everything about the show screams 'gay chorus!' The concert will be funny, but also serious. The Chorus will celebrate different American holiday traditions focusing on the music and style of Las Vegas, Nashville, Broadway, and the Southwest (especially Arizona). And SMC's beloved rendition of Silent Night and other traditional holiday tunes will not disappoint.
