A Christmas Concert You Won’t Want to Miss!

Celebrate the magic of the season with an evening of beautiful music and warm holiday spirit! Join us for the Idaho State University Chamber Choir’s Christmas Concert, where stunning choral harmonies and festive favorites come together to create a truly unforgettable experience. Bring your family and friends and start your Christmas season with a night you’ll treasure!

To ensure the best possible listening environment for all guests and performers, ISU kindly asks that noise from young children be kept to a minimum during the performance. If you’re attending with little ones, please be prepared to step into the lobby should they become restless or vocal. For this reason, ISU recommends that very young children not attend the concert.

We can’t wait to share this joyful celebration with you—come make holiday memories that will last all season long! 🎄✨

Explore & Grow: Theater & Music Lights up on learning! This print-and-go packet turns a live performance into an arts-integrated, reflective experience. Students name and track emotions, notice how actors and musicians communicate through movement and sound, compare live shows to movies or radio, and respond with creative and informational writing—organized by grade bands (Little Explorers, Pathfinders, Navigators) so you can print exactly what you need before, during, or after the show.

What’s inside (highlights)

• Feelings check-ins and seek-and-find listening/color activities

• Evidence-based reflections on how emotions were expressed on stage

• Venn diagram comparisons: Movies vs. Theater or Radio vs. Live Music

• Behind-the-scenes prompts on what it takes to stage a show

• Writing tasks: persuasive review, theme analysis, and first-person narratives (character/instrument), plus a logo/drawing prompt

How to use Preview key theater/music terms (cast, scene, tempo, dynamics) and audience etiquette, bring programs and pencils for quick notes during the show, then wrap up with a short review or live-vs-film compare/contrast back in class. Print only the pages you need by grade level.
