The acclaimed Lehigh Valley Charter High School for the Arts (Charter Arts) Music Department will present its Winter Instrumental Concert on Friday, December 19, 2025 at 7 PM. This concert will feature over 100 talented student musicians under the direction of Matthew Wells, Thomas Maher and Joseph Bucci.

The Charter Arts Wind Ensemble will be performing "Minnesota Portraits" by Pennsylvania-native, Sam Hazo. The Percussion Ensemble will showcase two strikingly contrasting works- "Starfall" and "Identity Crisis"- featuring some unexpected 'instruments'.

The Charter Arts Orchestra will present a blend of contemporary and nostalgic selections, including the ever popular, "Sleigh Ride", and the Guitar Ensemble will be featured in a special pre-recorded performance.

Tickets for each concert are $8-$14 and can be purchased online at CharterArts.org.

Charter Arts is located in the heart of Bethlehem's Southside Arts District at 321 East 3rd Street, Bethlehem. Prospective students and families can learn more about the school and its distinguished music program at CharterArts.org.
