The holidays finally feel like they are here.  Not because of the holiday shopping,  or because of the decorative lights going up on trees and houses in the neighborhood.  No, that wasn’t it.  It felt like a little bit of Christmas for me, because I heard caroling in the halls at UMass Boston.

I put down the file I was  reading and walked into the lobby of the Campus Center to find the UMass Boston Chamber Singers filling the air with beautiful melodies.  I enjoyed some  Deck the Halls,  We Wish You a Merry Christmas, and Jingle Bells before heading back to the office to read more files.

It sure does feel nice to take a step away from work to hear the holiday harmonies of our music students.  Thank you to the Chamber Singers and the Department of Performing Arts at UMass Boston – you were wonderful!
