In Concert - Mannheim Steamroller at Universal Studios

The Orlando Sentinel reported today that Universal Orlando will be kicking off their holiday season with two performances by the Grammy-winning group Mannheim Steamroller on Dec. 6.

Mannheim Steamroller is known for their unique instrumental tracks that founder Chip Davis calls  "18th Century classical rock."  

The group, which enjoys enormous popularity during the Christmas season, collaborated on the music for last year's original stage show "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" which will once again be performed at Seuss Landing inside Islands of Adventure theme park.

The Universal Studios concerts, held at 6pm and 8pm on Dec. 6,  will include music from the IOA "Grinch" show, old favorites, and selections from the new Steamroller CD Christmasville.  It is the only scheduled holiday-season appearances by Manheim Steamroller founder Chip Davis.

According to the Sentinel report, the concerts will be included in regular theme-park admission.
