'Holiday' Noche Romantica set for Wednesday

The sweet and romantic sounds will be heard just in time for the holidays as Laredo Community College's Spanish Traditional Group performs during the 20th Anniversary Noche Romantica concert.

The annual music concert will be held on Wednesday, Dec. 8, at 8:30 p.m. in LCC's Guadalupe and Lilia Martinez Fine Arts Center theater.

Admission is free and open to the public.

More than a dozen members from the LCC Spanish Traditional Group will perform Spanish and Christmas music.

"For 20 years now, we've been going strong with the LCC Spanish Traditional Group, and we're excited to bring this concert to the community to show our passion for this type of music," said Ruben Vargas, the group's music director.

The Noche Romantica program at LCC began in 1990 and is still going strong.

"When we started this group, we knew there were people interested in keeping Spanish music alive. And now, we have more than a hundred former members out there, and we invite them to come this 20th Anniversary Noche Romantica concert," Vargas added.

Some of the selections for the Noche Romantica concert include, "Odiame," "El Milagro de tus Ojos," "Dejame Vivir," and "Feliz Navidad."
