It’s the holiday season and that means you may be listening to Christmas music on loop. The Show talked to someone else who spends a lot of time this time of year listening to it.
Julie Mahoney, conductor of the East Valley Pops Orchestra, leads the orchestra made up of mostly retirees and snowbirds who are playing Christmas music all over town this time of year. She's been with them for for 31 years and says it includes some of her favorite performance moments.
Mahoney joined The Show to talk about it, beginning with her history in music, which has always been a part of her life — from piano lessons starting at age 4, to majoring in music in college, to becoming a music teacher. She also has always been involved in community orchestras.
