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
Ticket sales opening soon!

2024-2025 Concert Season: That’s a Wrap!
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who attended our concerts this season; it was truly a delight to share these musical moments with you.
We deeply appreciate our wonderful community of family, friends, and ARS supporters. YOU are the reason we continue to sing, and why we take such joy in the work we do here at Arizona Repertory Singers.
With renewed energy and gratitude, we look forward to seeing you at our holiday concerts this December!
Spring 2022
February 27
ARS is excited to partner with the University of Arizona Symphonic and Arizona Choirs for a combined concert on February 25 at 7:30 p.m. at St. Mark’s United Methodist Church and February 27 at 3 p.m. at St. Augustine Cathedral downtown. Admission is free. This is an exciting opportunity to build our relationship with the university and reach a new audience with thought provoking repertoire about the importance of planet conservation.
Coming in April
The Spring 2022 concerts will feature repertoire that emphasizes the importance of preserving our planet by slowing the effects of climate change – which affects not only all of us, but nature and animals as well. ARS will highlight this issue for our listeners with music that includes Emerald Stream by Seth Houston and Estonian composer Uno Naissoo’s Metsa Telegramm.
THank you and Happy Holidays!
Singing Sim Shalom – Grant Peace together for you was our great pleasure. Thank you for joining us!

We wish you all peace and health in the New Year.
