Christmas carols and holiday music filled the concourse of the bustling Empire State Plaza in Albany on Friday as Columbia High School musicians performed a free holiday concert for state workers and visitors. The school’s Chamber Singers, Orchestra, Concert Band and Symphonic Band attracted a large audience as passersby stopped to enjoy the music.
Each of these groups will be performing Holiday Concerts in the Columbia Auditorium on Thursday, December 13 (Orchestra and Concert Band) and Thursday, December 20 (Chamber Singers and Symphonic Band). The shows are free and open to the public.
