December 3, 2026 – February 25, 2027 – The Symphony of the Hills presents their holiday concert of the 2026-27 season, Comfort and Joy, on Thursday, December 3 at 7 pm in the Cailloux Theater.
Our annual Christmas concert brings a joyful collection of holiday music starting with the masterful Christmas Concerto by Arcangelo Corelli, one of the first Baroque composers to write for string orchestra. The audience will also find joy in a thrilling orchestral mash-up of Vivaldi’s Winter Concerto with O Hanukkah by the great pops orchestra arranger, Tim Berens. Rimsky-Korsakov composed his brilliant “Polonaise”’ for his opera entitled “Christmas Eve.” The first half closes with a stellar home-grown talent, cellist Audrey Jellett performing Ernest Bloch’s “Prayer from Jewish Life.” The second half brings our annual collaboration with the Hill Country Chorale featuring the iconic music of John Williams from his film score Home Alone, followed by the ever-popular “Many Moods of Christmas (Suite 3)” collected and arranged by the great chorus master Robert Shaw. The concert concludes with Leroy Anderson’s “A Christmas Festival” sung by the chorus and the audience.
