Join the City Rhythm Orchestra for their annual Christmas show “Holiday Style!”, as they cook up exciting and innovative versions of seasonal classics. In addition to their renowned big band sound, the group features vocalists Steve Ritrovato and Rich Cox, and many fine soloists. This year’s special guest is renowned tenor sax player Jerry Weldon. The evening is sure to put you in the holiday spirit!

The City Rhythm Orchestra has been dazzling audiences for over 35 years and has earned the reputation as one of today’s finest big bands. Led by Pete Spina and Nick Vallerio, the group has consistently created music with a distinct style and sound. They’ve been praised by audiences and critics in both their hometown of Philadelphia and around the world. Their non-stop energy was dubbed “great music and great fun” by the New York Times.

The band has been featured at major concert venues throughout the USA with notable shows at the Kimmel Center, Mann Music Center, Lincoln Center, Highline Ballroom, Birdland, the Blue Note, Glen Echo Ballroom, Sweets Ballroom, and at festivals across the states from New York to Florida to California. The band has also toured Europe 18 times and performed at music events in Rome, Florence, Venice, Perugia, Amsterdam, Cologne, Lyon, Bordeaux and many other cities. They have recorded several successful CDs, including “Goin’ to Town” (1994), “Swinging Blue” (1997), “City Rhythm Strikes Again” (1999), “Sounds of Hope” (2001), “Vibrant Tones” (2005), “Songs You Can Live By” (2012), and “Feel the Rhythm” (2019). “Vibrant Tones” featured renowned jazz artist Joey DeFrancesco on the Hammond B3 organ and earned a spot on the national jazz charts for 18 weeks.

The City Rhythm orchestra is excited to be returning to The Colonial Theatre to present this very special holiday show.
