56th Annual Noel Night Set for Dec. 2

The University of Scranton Singers and Chamber Ensembles will present its 56th Annual Noel Night on Saturday, Dec. 2, at 8:00 p.m. with a prelude from 7:05. Doors open at 7 p.m. and admission is free.

The University’s Christmas gift to the community, Noel Night has been a beloved holiday tradition for numerous Scranton-area residents since its beginnings more than a half-century ago when it was founded by Rev. Edward Gannon, S.J.

This year’s Noel Night will feature The University of Scranton Singers and Chamber Ensembles and will include a prelude by The University of Scranton String Orchestra and Flute Ensemble. Outdoor instrumental caroling by members of the University Bands will greet audience members as they arrive. Seating is on a first come, first seated basis.

The primary focus of Performance Music at The University of Scranton is its student choral and instrumental performing ensembles. Because there is no music major at the University, all enrolled Scranton students (undergraduate and graduate) are eligible for membership in the University bands, choirs and string ensembles. Auditions and enrollment fee are not required for membership. Hundreds of students participate in the ensembles each year.
