A Gift for Emma
Sarah Jaffe, Midlake among musical talent By Lucinda Breeding Features Editor
The organizers have named it the “Holiday Music Spectacular.” The annual holiday party on the downtown Square is bound to feel a bit different this year. For nearly 20 years, Denton’s hometown musical treasure, Brave Combo, won’t send revelers into the thick of the holiday season with “The Chicken Dance” or the band’s venerated “Hokey Pokey.”
This year, the concluding concert makes way for a slate of Denton musicians known for headline-grabbing folk and jazz music: Sarah Jaffe, members of Midlake and Paul Slavens. This year’s celebration retains probably the longest-running musical tradition of the lighting: the Denton Community Band will get things started with the annual holiday sing-along, just before dignitaries turn on the Christmas tree lights and the festival stages get going. Marcus Watson, the outgoing presi-
dent of the Holiday Festival Association, said organizers were itching for a change right about the time Denton started getting serious about Halloween. “That’s when we got David Pierce involved in the event,” said Watson. “Seeing what he did with Circque du Horror, and how he’s just a sweet guy who is really able to get people together, we thought it was one of those golden opportunities. That, and the fact that Denton has gotten so much attention, nationally and even internationally, for our music. We thought the lighting festi-
val could really promote that.” Pierce said he took a cue from his friends when he recruited an 11-piece holiday orchestra with brass, winds and some percussion. “Becaus of the willingness of my friends to help out with Cirque du Horror, I thought why not create something for the holiday lighting,” he said. Cirque du Horror is an old fashioned Halloween musical that Pierce created See LIGHTS on Page 9

The story of The Nutcracker takes place on Christmas eve with Mr. and Mrs. Sturbaum and their daughter, Clara. When Clara’s favorite uncle, Drosselmeyer, suddenly appears in disguise, he brings four mechanical dolls and the nutcracker as gifts. The Nutcracker is a holiday classic that was originally inspired from E. T. A. Hoffmann in Germany in 1816.
The Festival Ballet of North Central Texas presents The Nutcracker, a holiday classic. The Nutcracker will be performed Dec. 10 at 2:30 and 7:30 and Dec. 11 at 2:30 in the Margo Jones Auditorium at the TWU campus. Ticket prices range from $10 to $35. “I think it’s going to turn out really good,” said sophomore Breanna Collier, who plays the role of an Arabian attendant. “Each teacher is really talented, and they make the students look as talented as they do during the dance.” The story of The Nutcracker takes place on Christmas eve with Mr. and Mrs. Sturbaum and their daughter, Clara.
When Clara’s favorite uncle, Drosselmeyer, suddenly appears in disguise, bringing four mechanical dolls and the nutcracker as gifts, the dances begin. Later that night, after the family has gone to bed, Drosselmeyer and the mechanical dolls reappear, a battle is fought against the Rat King and his mice, and the nutcracker is turned into a chevalier. The chevalier takes Clara on journey that begins in the Land of Snow. “I like the part with the mice when they fight the toy soldiers,” Collier said. “They’re tiny, they’re stomping, and they’re innocent. It’s really cute.” The Nutcracker is a holiday classic that was originally inspired from E. T. A. See NUTCRACKER on Page 8

‘A Gift for Emma’ returns to stage The Denton City Contemporary Ballet announces its upcoming productions of “A Gift for Emma,” a holiday fantasy in dance with a cast of 200-plus local and professional dancers. After going on “hiatus” last year in order to prepare for
their tour of Austria, the Denton City Contemporary Ballet brings the holiday event back with its visions of dancing toys, butterflies, spiders, mermaids and jellyfish. Setting itself apart from the more traditional classic, “The Nutcracker,” “A Gift for Emma”
includes a multitude of dance genres including ballet, jazz, contemporary and hip-hop. The Denton City Contemporary Ballet and Denton Dance Conservatory continue their partnership with the 13th production this holiday season.

Hoffmann in Germany in 1816. It was a dark fairy tale that Tchaikovsky thought unsuitable for ballet. It wasn’t until 1890 that he had the opportunity to compose a ballet based on a newer, French version of the tale, entitled Casse-Noisette. Though not immediately popular, a New York City Ballet revival in 1954 sparked interest in the ballet and gathered more popularity than ever. Since then, the show plays all over the world. “The Nutcracker ballet that Denton Ballet Academy performs allows amateur dancers to get a part, but it also maintains a professional look,” said Collier. Even though Collier has six years of dancing behind her, she is nervous about going on stage. “Each dancer put a lot of effort into their role,” she said. “Some of those dancers have been working for 6 years to get the part that they got. It’s kind of nerve wracking to perform at the level that they perform.”

Campus Theatre presents: Christmas Belles The production’s cast members unfortunately dined at the band booster’s pancake supper where they contracted a touch of food poisoning. Santa Claus has a kidney stone and one special shepherd, Raynerd, insists on pulling his red wagon to tend his flock. Christmas Belles has all this and an Elvis impersonator- it is truly holiday hilarity. The play was written by Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope and Jamie Wooten. Co-Directors Betty Kay Seibt and Bonnie McCormick report that the entire cast is â€œâ€Śhaving a ball rehearsing this show‌with a collection of improbable
Denton Community Theatre is celebrating this Christmas season with a Texas twang. Christmas Belles takes place in the small Texas town of Fayro where sisters Frankie, Twink and Honey Raye Futrelle are feeling less than festive. Frankie is overdue with her second set of twins, Twink has recently been jilted, is bitter and in jail (trying to burn her boyfriends belongings got a bit out of control), and Honey Raye suffers from hot flashes while trying to keep the Tabernacle of the Lamb’s Christmas Program from being a disappointing disaster.
coincidences, crazy characters who remind you of your own relatives, and laugh-aminute lines,� according to a news release. Seibt describes it as “The Daughters of the Lone Star State put on the Best Little Christmas Pageant in Tuna, TX.� As an extra treat, the character of Reynerd will be celebrated with a prize drawing for a red wagon filled with family fun items. Performances are Dec. 9, 10, 16, 17 at 7:30 p.m. and Dec. 11, 18 at 2 p.m. at the Campus Theatre, 214 W. Hickory St. in Denton. Seating is reserved and all tickets are $20. Tickets are available at

NCTC plans concert Friday GAINESVILLE – The North Central Texas College Department of Music will help ring in the season with its popular annual holiday concert on Friday. The concert is set to begin at 7:30 p.m. on the main stage of the First State Bank Center for the Performing Arts on the Gainesville Campus. The program is free to the general public. “It’s a great way to get into the holiday spirit, and the mix of classic pieces and traditional Christmas and holiday musical selections is one the whole family can enjoy,� said Marty Kobuck, instrumental music director at NCTC, in a news release. “To close the concert, in fact, we’ll even be inviting everybody to join us and sing along on some of the classic carols. “There’s just nothing better than traditional music to really get me in the holiday spirit. I’m sure many members of the audience are like me in that these wonderful songs are an important part of my earliest and happiest Christmas memories.� Scheduled to perform
“It’s a great way to get into the holiday spirit... .� — Marty Kobuck, instrumental music director at NCTC
are the NCTC Singers, NCTC Wind Ensemble and the North Central Texas Chorale. The concert will open with the Vivaldi Gloria, sung by the combined choirs with guest orchestra and featuring solos by soprano Gwen Johnson and mezzo-soprano Dianna Grabowski. “We’re very excited about the opportunity to bring all these groups together,� said choral director Daniel Banke, “because of the wide range of not only the musical selections but also the variety of styles in which they will be presented.� “All our groups have worked very hard to make this program a truly memorable one,� he said. “In fact, I’m looking forward to it myself, and I urge everybody to bring the entire family and join us for what

should be a very special evening.� Kobuck said the NCTC Wind Ensemble program will include traditional march music as well as modern wind symphony literature. One very recognizable piece will be Colonel Bogey March, which served as the theme song for the movie The Bridge on the River Kwai. Another popular selection on the program is Ralph Vaughn Williams’ Sea Songs, coming directly from the British brass band tradition. “One of the most beautiful melodies ever written will highlight the program,� Kobuck said. “That work is J. S. Bach’s Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring. “More modern composers like Brian Balmages and Frank Ticheli are also represented. Audiences are sure to enjoy the energy of Balmages’ Summer Resounding and the light spirit of Ticheli’s Joy Revisited For more information call the office of the NCTC Department of Music at 940-668-3318.
