WOODSTOCK - Tickets are now on sale for Christmas with the Winds at St. David's United Church in Woodstock.

This will be the 26th annual holiday performance for the Oxford Winds Community Concert Band.

Music Director and Conductor Stephanie Riehl says this show will be extra special because it's their first in-person performance in three years.

"We hadn't been able to play together and make music together since March 2020 and we of course haven't had a concert since November 2019, so it was very exciting for us to return to our rehearsals this fall."

The show will begin at 7:30 p.m. on Friday November 25th. Tickets cost $10 in advance and they can be purchased at the Magnolia Gallery or by sending an e-mail to info@oxfordwinds.ca. Tickets will also be available at the door for $15 on the night of.

Reihl says you can expect to hear all of your holiday favourites.

"Audience members will hear from some English carols by Gustav Holst. We will also be featuring an arrangement of Paul McCartney's Wonderful Christmas Time and we have a really fun version of Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. So there is definitely something for all ages."

The Oxford Winds Community Concert Band consists of 40 musicians across three different skill levels: Novice, Intermediate and Senior. All of the musicians will be hitting the stage Friday night.
