The Grammy® Award-winning Houston Chamber Choir, under the direction of Robert Simpson, will return to the beauty of the Villa de Matel Chapel to present “Christmas at the Villa – Glory in the Highest,” the Choir’s annual holiday concerts sharing the universal message of peace and goodwill to the world. The Choir now celebrates its 30th anniversary season.

The soaring sounds of voices, organ and brass will ring throughout the beauty of the Chapel of the Villa de Matel to the delight of concert-goers for “Christmas at the Villa – Glory in the Highest.” This year, special guests are the highly regarded instrumental ensemble Paragon Brass and the Treble Choir of Houston at Christ Church Cathedral directed by Marianna Parnas-Simpson, returning once again. Join with family and friends in this beloved Houston holiday tradition.
