Happy Holidays from ChathamU!
The song "Chatham Christmas,” recently discovered in the Chatham University Archives, was composed in association with Pennsylvania College for Women Class of 1952. In the spirit of the holidays, and in honor of Chatham's 150th Anniversary year, Chatham University Music Program students gathered together to breathe new life into the song now dubbed “Chatham Holidays.” We hope you enjoy this blast from Chatham’s past, updated with new lyrics for 2019!
We’re presenting this song to celebrate the holiday season— and Chatham’s 150th Anniversary year! Special thanks to Music majors Katherine Hetz, Kaitlyn Salmon, and Nicholas Graef, Chatham University Archives and Special Collections Archivist Molly Tighe, and the Chatham University Music Department for their time, energy, and expertise in making this project come alive.
