Season of Wonder
This Winter, the Arizona Repertory Singers return for the Season of Wonder, performing a collection of sacred and secular music for the holidays. The program for its 43rd season features two works by Norwegian composers, Ola Gjeilo and Øran Matre, and contemporary arrangements of holiday classics, such as Sleigh Ride and O Holy Night. Yoni Fogelman’s The Everlasting Flame is a serene candle-lighting blessing composed for Hanukkah, and Sizalewe Indodana, a South African Christmas song whose title translates to “Unto Us a Child Is Born,” features an a cappella arrangement and call-and-response sections. As always, a string quartet will be featured on several pieces, like Mark Hayes’s arrangement of I’ll Be Home for Christmas and Eric Whitacre’s Glow, the latter being composed for Disneyland’s World of Color showcase in 2013. Bring your holiday spirit for what will be a wonderful concert!
December 5 & 6 | 3pm at Christ Church United Methodist
December 13 | 4pm at St. Mark Catholic Church

SUN, MOON, AND STARS | Spring 2025
by Ryan Phillips, M.M., Music Director and Conductor Each summer, I find some time (uninterrupted time is a hot commodity in our household!) to think about what concert theme I’d like to present with ARS each fall and spring. I’ll be the first to admit that I struggled to solidify a theme for the performance you’re about to hear. Each…
