RICHMOND, Va.--City Singers Youth Choirs will perform "Ezra Jack Keats's The Snowy Day: A Wintry Mix of Story and Song," Saturday, December 8, at Tabernacle Baptist Church on Grove Avenue.

City Singers Youth Choirs will present a delightful alternative to the loud, busy, and sometimes overwhelming parades of the season. The story and song combo concert, featuring the beloved children's book The Snowy Day, by Ezra Jack Keats will be family and sensory friendly.

"We wanted to musically highlight one of the most charming children's books ever made," City Singers Director Leslie Dripps said. "Along the way we ended up with a stress-free way for families to enjoy the season."

CBS 6's Antoinette Essa, will narrate and along with the choirs will feature vocalist Kimberly Fox-Knight, pianist Daniel Stipe and on oboe, George Pavelis. All ages are welcome to this family and sensory-friendly concert! "Ezra Jack Keats's The Snowy Day: A Wintry Mix of Story and Song" is BYOB--that's Bring Your Own Book--and read along as we sing through the city with Peter!
