  WINTER'S GIFTS: WISH brings together a rich tapestry of music that speaks to our deep, universal longing for peace, love, and hope. The program will honor and celebrate the diverse faith traditions and cultures throughout the Bay Area, offering a message of unity and shared humanity.

"This time of year often stirs memories of winters past when we were children. The anticipation of something beautiful to be revealed as a gift or a gathering awakens within. With this wide-eyed wonder comes wishes for what might be," says The Choral Project's Artistic Director and Conductor Daniel Hughes.

The concert will feature two world premieres by TCP Artistic Director Daniel Hughes, along with stirring works by Gustav Holst, Z. Randall Stroope, and Robert Seeley. One of the program's highlights will be Paul Halley's stunning UBI CARITAS, an exhilarating arrangement that blends the 8th-century plainchant melody with a vibrant Nigerian song, creating a powerful end to the evening's offerings.

SJCO Artistic Director Barabara Day Turner shares, "We hope that the concert's program reminds us of our connectedness as a global family and that we can rekindle our wishes for a better world."

For 20 years, WINTER'S GIFTS has enchanted audiences with its unique blend of choral and orchestral mastery, becoming a treasured holiday tradition in the South Bay.

Prepare to be uplifted by an evening of extraordinary music that transcends cultural boundaries, honors diverse faiths, and resonates with the timeless wish for peace and love.

Don't miss this magical experience that will inspire and move the heart.
