1. Peter Breinholt Christmas Concert
Covey Center for the Arts, Dec. 1, 7:30 p.m.
The first day of December is the perfect time to sit back and enjoy some beautiful Christmas music, which is what you will find at the Covey Center for the Arts. The website says: “Although Peter Breinholt has been a mainstay in the Utah Music scene for years, his Christmas shows have become the main event for many of his fans. Now and it’s second decade, A Peter Breinholt Christmas made its debut at the Provo Covey Center just two years ago and sold out immediately. Peter will be joined this year by his longtime band, including renowned pianist David Tolk, who performs some of his own music at these concerts.”
