Get ready for a night of sparkle, seasonal spirit, and outstanding young talent as the Southampton Youth Concert Sinfonia brings its Christmas Cabaret Concert to Thornden Hall on Tuesday the 9th December at 7:15pm.
This uplifting festive event is the perfect way to begin your Christmas celebrations — and a wonderful chance to support young musicians performing in a professional orchestral setting.
Your evening begins the moment you arrive, with the smooth, stylish sounds of the Studio Band performing live in the foyer, adding a sophisticated, jazz-infused start to the celebrations.
Once seated, you’ll be treated to a vibrant orchestral cabaret programme featuring dazzling instrumental arrangements of classics such as Cabaret, New York, New York, and Puttin’ on the Ritz, alongside a sleigh-full of Christmas favourites including The Grinch and Shakin’ Stevens’ festive hits.
The concert also features a special appearance by youth vocalist Rae Taylor, adding a touch of extra sparkle — but the spotlight remains firmly on the remarkable young instrumentalists who bring the entire evening to life.
With lively performances, festive warmth, and orchestral brilliance, this is a concert guaranteed to get you into the Christmas spirit and fill you with pride for the next generation of musicians.
Join them for an unforgettable night of music and festive cheer — because if this concert proves anything, it’s that life really is a Cabaret… especially at Christmas!
