York High School vocalists: Winners all in winter concert
Along with a standing-room crowd, I attended the first of the two recent evening York High School Holiday Concerts held in the town's largest "concert hall," namely St. Christopher's Church on Route 1A.

Backyard Birds and Garden Frills honored for inspired “Winter Woodland”
Even amidst the throngs of people who visited the 17th Festival of Trees in Portsmouth, N.H., when you stepped into the dining room of the "Antique Cape" at the Urban Forestry Center, a tranquil oasis delighted the senses.

To round out its Vintage Christmas programming, The Music Hall will present the Seacoast's largest Messiah Sing, featuring Handel's triumphant Christmas oratorio, on Sunday, Dec. 23.
