From the first coy “Santa baby, slip a sable under the tree…” the audience was hooked. With winks, sways, and tongue-in-cheek delivery, the singers brought the iconic tune to life with delicious camp. Yet beneath the surface-level fun, the performance was polished and musically rich. The vocal blend was tight, the timing crisp, and every gesture felt purposeful—proof that humor and high-quality musicianship are not mutually exclusive.

This number showcased not just the ensemble’s musicality, but their ability to connect with an audience. As they sang of love and gratitude during the holidays—“You’re all I need underneath the tree”—the performance became a shared moment of communal joy, bridging the gap between pop music and choral artistry. The audience responded with tapping toes, clapping hands, and wide grins, swept up in the sheer exuberance of the piece.
