Andrew Haase, Hudson High School's director of choral activities and artistic director for the Home for the Holidays concert is thrilled and excited to present this seventh annual concert.

“The purpose of this concert is two-fold — to provide our students with a professional musical and educational experience, and to provide an extraordinary musical experience for our community.”
