The 2013 Christmas season came upon me way too fast. I got a late start on building props and working
on the sequencing of the songs to add them in. But, I got it done..
New to this year's show are four new Cosmic Color Arches which can be seen on the right hand side of the videos in front of the five smaller trees. This year's show features slightly more than 17,000
lights, six Cosmic Color Arches, and red and green lasers, all controlled by 496 lighting channels choreographed to popular Christmas tunes.
This year show features a new song - "Hark the Herald Angles Sing" - a special arrangement created especially for the show by popular Boston musician, Ilona Macki.
Most of the props used in the show are hand made. Last year I featured a behind the scenes look at the making of the mega-tree. This year I'll give you a behind the scenes look at how the LOR Cosmic Color arches are made.
