Steven Reineke News

On December 19, Megan Hilty joined Steven Reineke, Essential Voices USA, and The New York Pops for a special holiday concert at Carnegie Hall, and you can check out photos of the event.

The entire evening was gorgeous but one musical artist put the show over the top.

At this festive time of year, everyone has a favorite tradition. One of mine is attending YOUR National Symphony Orchestra’s (NSO) annual A Holiday Pops! concert. It is always guaranteed to showcase a top notch singer and a superb choir, while giving the audience one audible pleasure after another as Maestro Steven Reineke leads the NSO through familiar holiday favorites mixed with new and innovative orchestrations of holiday classics. This year’s edition did not disappoint!

There are many holiday viewing traditions here in the DMV covering all genres of entertainment. Ford’s Theatre’s production of A Christmas Carol and Washington Ballet’s The Nutcracker at the Warner Theatre are just two productions that audiences keep returning to year after year.

The air crackled with electric energy inside the famed Carnegie Hall on Friday November 21 with its celebration of hometown musical theater icon, Lin-Manuel Miranda. The stupendous performance featured IN THE HEIGHTS star Mandy Gonzalez.

The New York Pops will honor Grammy, Academy, and Tony Award winning composer Stephen Schwartz at the orchestra’s 43rd Birthday Gala.
