History

The music group Twelve Twenty Four is starting their 5^th year of area performances. The group recreates an evening with the music of the Trans- Siberian Orchestra, a band known for their Christmas concerts heard in sold out stadiums throughout the U.S. during the holiday season. The music combines the edge of a rock band with the soothing sounds of an orchestra. Twelve Twenty Four performs their songs within the context of a story, complete with an on stage narrator, angel, 4 piece string section, full-scale concert lighting and sound, and choreographed dancing. The band creates an atmosphere that celebrates the magic of Christmas, reminds us of the reason for the season, and truly touches the hearts of the audience.

“Twelve Twenty Four consists of musicians coming from a diverse group of various well known local bands, each with extensive musical backgrounds. The band members are delighted to be in communication with the actual Trans Siberian Orchestra, who have personally enjoyed Twelve Twenty Four’s 1^st year DVD.

The production appeals to family members of all ages, and their ticket price, of less than 1/3 of the actual Trans-Siberian show, allows everyone in the community to witness a large production scale show not easily forgotten. Those who are late in getting arena seats will be enthralled to find they can still enjoy the magnificent sounds of the holidays. Twelve Twenty Four’s venues spread the joy of Christmas for the naughty and the nice, as several prisons enjoyed their 5th annual performances, along with area universities, theaters, ballrooms, and high schools.
