Hi, everybody.

I'm Felicia Curry, and welcome to this special edition of "WETA Arts."

We are so lucky that right here in the nation's capital, we have a large, vibrant, and exciting choral music scene.

We are pleased to bring to you festive music from choruses and choirs from all around the D.C. region in our second annual holiday concert show.

Please join us in celebrating the holiday season in song.
