Sandi Patty, Voctave & More Headline Concerts at Sounds of the Season Concert Series at Gaylord Palms in December

Hi everyone!

The Sounds of the Series Concert Series will be returning to Gaylord Palms this December as part of Christmas at Gaylord Palms. I was really suprised and delighted to see Sandi Patty listed, she has one of the most beautiful voices ever in Christian music (or any music style) and I first saw her in concert in the early 1980s. Voctave is also performing (I expect that to sell out early as well), as is VoicePlay and other terrific acts. The performances do include an exclusive visit to ICE! at Gaylord Palms Featuring A Christmas Story. Read below for more information including how to order tickets!
