With our theme based on the enchanting, music-box style waltz that was featured in the animated film “Anastasia,” Bells of the Cascades is pleased to offer a wonderful mix of pieces for your holiday enjoyment! You’ll hear some familiar Christmas songs in surprising arrangements, as well as other types of pieces that will evoke all the uplifting feelings that humanity chooses to embrace at this time of year. From the gentle to the stirring, we hope to entertain and leave you with a warm glow and a full heart. We look forward to having you with us!
This year we’ll perform in two concerts, and we’ll be joined on some of the pieces in Vancouver by the Salmon Creek Exultation Ringers. Follow the links below for details….
Many thanks to the Oregon Arts Commission for their generous funding support this year!
