BayPhil tunes up for ‘Sounds of the Season’

Holiday concert brings Mariachi Nueva Sangre and Handel’s Hallelujah Chorus

Kick off the holidays on Sunday, Dec. 14, at 3pm as Bay Philharmonic presents The Bay Area’s Best: Sounds of the Season. This beloved annual tradition delivers live entertainment and transforms the Chabot College Performing Arts Center into a musical wonderland—bursting with family-friendly magic, spirited sing-alongs and uplifting performances.

The program marks the debut of 25/26 season guest conductor Alexander Kahn, and delivers many moments of holiday cheer: themes from The Polar Express and The Snowman, a sparkling Broadway holiday medley, Merry-Achi music featuring Mariachi Nueva Sangre and Bay Phil’s orchestra, Hanukkah selections, classic carols and spirituals, a full-ensemble performance of Handel’s Hallelujah Chorus and a joyful sing-along for all.

“This show becomes holiday magic only when we share it—together,” said guest conductor Alexander Kahn. “I can’t wait for you to feel surprised, inspired and filled with the true spirit of the season!”
