Celebrate the season!
Get an up-close look at the rare 10-foot-long contrabass flute, then enjoy stories about holiday tunes while hearing a mixture of international carols, traditional melodies, and winter favorites.
There’s music for all ages at this free concert!

Playing instruments that range from the rare 10-foot long contrabass flute to the traditional piccolo, CAFE musicians surprise and enthrall audiences by playing diverse genres: oldies, classical, show tunes, jazz, folk, and pop music with a holiday theme.
This concert will be engaging, educational, and entertaining because it will actively involve the audience.
Look forward to:
- An introduction to the flute family: contrabass, bass, alto, C flute, and piccolo. Each instrument will be heard individually and then showcased as part of the flute choir sound
- Friendly, clear introductions to each piece along with interesting trivia about the music and composers
- Active engagement with the audience by asking questions, inviting comments, and encouraging singing and clapping.
- Opportunities to pose for a photo (or selfie!) with the gigantic contrabass flute, flutists, and instruments after the final applause has faded
Free, no tickets needed. First come, first seated!
