Arlington Event Calendar

Founded in 1968, Edmund Burke School provides a challenging curriculum and inclusive environment for 300 students in Grades 6-12.

Located by the Van Ness Metro in Northwest D.C., Burke is a co-ed independent school, known for our small class sizes, strong advisory program, rich arts and athletics, and civic engagement curriculum.

*For Burke students who live in Virginia, we offer morning shuttle service from Arlington and Alexandria.

Please join us for the NCE Holiday Concert which brings the finest classical masterpieces and holiday favorites together in one fun program for the whole family.

The festivities begin with Leroy Anderson’s classic “Sleigh Ride” and “Chanukkah Festival” in a setting by Daniel Leavitt. Outstanding Young Artist Award — piano competition winners Michael Chen (13), Tucker Stone(16) an Daniel Kim (15) will join the ensemble to perform music by Mozart, Granados, Gershwin and more.

A group of young violinists ages 11 to 17 will perform festive film music by Shostakovich. Audience favorite, tenor Patrick D. McCoy returns to sing “Comfort Ye and the aria “Every Valley” from Handel’s Messiah and of course to lead the Carols Sing-Along, which concludes the program. Start warming up your voices!

Join the artists of NCE and outstanding young musicians to celebrate and toast the Holiday Season! The concert will be followed by a wine and cheese reception with the artists.
