The Wizards of Winter - featuring members who have performed with Classic Rock Giants – The Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Rainbow, Def Leppard, Alice Cooper, Blue Oyster Cult and Trixter, along with Broadway and Theater veterans, perform a Christmas Holiday rock opera titled “The Christmas Dream”. Weaving a story based on their latest album The Christmas Dream, along with music from their self-titled CD and their album The Magic of Winter, The Wizards take their audience on a musical journey in search of the meaning of Christmas. This 11-member ensemble boasts soaring vocal harmonies, precision string instrumentation, powerful percussion, and stunning keyboard work, layered around a rich storyboard that evokes memories and emotions of December’s past! From rock and pop to ballads, and even a visit from Mrs. Claus – there is something for everyone.
