A Little Holiday Excitement

Hey Everyone, We are about to head into December and what better than to plan a trip to the Spruce Peak Performing Arts Center!

I am extermley excited for the showing on December 3rd A Charlie Brown Christmas with David Benoit. David Benoit is a five time Grammy-nominated pianist and his quartet will play a show full of holiday songs and arrangements made famous by Vince Guaraldi on the Charlie Brown Christmas TV specials.

The evening will also feature children from the Stowe Elementary School Chorus singing during the show with Mr. Benoit and company.

Benoit electrified the jazz world when he released a version of “The Peanuts Theme” which became a #1 hit on jazz radio. He has performed The Peanuts Piano Concerto with several orchestras as part of his tribute to Charles Schulz and the music of Vince Guaraldi. In 2000 he released his GRP tribute recording Here’s To You, Charlie Brown: 50 Great Years. In 2005, Benoit released 40 Years: A Charlie Brown Christmas, featuring Toni Braxton, Norman Brown, Chaka Khan, Dave Koz, the Rippingtons, Vanessa Williams, and others.

This inspirational concert features the classic music of Vince Guaraldi along with Charlie Brown Christmas originals from David Benoit, who took over the helm as the music composer for the new Charlie Brown Christmas TV Specials more than a decade ago. Experience the magic of a beloved and timeless holiday classic, performed by an artist who through his passion keeps the music of A Charlie Brown Christmas alive, and ever evolving.
