The Alliance Classical Players are set to transport audiences back to the elegant Edwardian era with their upcoming holiday concert, “Christmas at Downton Abbey.” Scheduled for 7 p.m. on Saturday, December 6th, the free community performance promises an evening of seasonal music evocative of the beloved television series and the early 20th century.

Taking place at the Rome Art and Community Center, located at 308 W. Bloomfield St., in Rome, the concert offers a unique opportunity to experience the charm and sophistication of a bygone era through the power of music. Attendees can expect a carefully curated selection of pieces that capture the spirit of the holiday season as it might have been celebrated within the grand halls of Downton Abbey.

While specific pieces remain a delightful surprise, the concert's title suggests a focus on traditional Christmas carols and classical compositions that would have been popular during the early 1900s. Imagine the familiar melodies, perhaps with a touch of Edwardian flair, filling the Rome Art and Community Center with warmth and festive cheer. The Alliance Classical Players are known for their dedication to bringing high-quality classical music to the community, and this concert is no exception.

“Christmas at Downton Abbey” is more than just a concert; it’s an immersive experience. The music aims to evoke the atmosphere of the iconic television show, conjuring images of roaring fireplaces, lavish decorations, and the close-knit relationships that defined the Crawley family and their staff. It’s a chance to step back in time and celebrate the holidays with a touch of historical elegance.

The free admission makes this a particularly appealing event for families and music lovers alike. The Alliance Classical Players encourage everyone to come and enjoy an evening of beautiful music and holiday cheer. So, mark your calendars for Saturday, December 6th, and prepare to be transported to Downton Abbey for a truly unforgettable Christmas celebration.
