Grammy-winning composer and fiddler Mark O’Connor has created several arrangements of Christmas classics and fashions a wondrous mixture of both instrumental and vocal music in bluegrass and other American music genres. Concertgoers are treated to fresh takes on traditional songs with a few original compositions included. His renditions are playful and joyous, but can be strikingly earnest too.

The touring musicians with  Mark O’Connor include his wife Maggie O’Connor, son Forrest O’Connor, daughter-in-law Kate Lee, Joe Smart and Geoff Saunders of the newly Grammy-winning O’Connor Band.
