The BHS Select Singers, conducted by John Middleton-Cox, will sing the world premiere of a new holiday song at Lord & Taylor in the Burlington Mall, Monday, November 15, at 5:30 pm celebrating the eagerly anticipated annual unveiling of the holiday windows at Lord & Taylor’s flagship store in New York City.

With the Young People’s Chorus of New York City™ and almost 2,000 choristers at most of Lord & Taylor’s 46 locations in nine states, the Select Singers will sing a program of yuletide favorites highlighted by “Share the Joy,” written just for this occasion by founder and artistic director of the Young People’s Chorus of New York City™ Francisco J. Núñez and composer Jim Papoulis.

The Young People’s Chorus of New York City™ extended the invitation to all of the choruses in the spirit of the season to show how the power of song can bring people of all kinds together through music.

The New York event, featuring a performance by Kristin Chenoweth, will be streamed live at www.lordandtaylor.com/sharewindows.
