          An Evening with Sons of Serendip to Benefit the Phil





                  WITH PREMIERE                          For the first time ever, the Phil will present a virtual
                                                         music event on Saturday, December 12  from 6 pm to
                                                                                                    th
               PERFORMANCES BY                           9 pm, a night of non-stop music and holiday cheer.

                                                         With the traditional Holiday Pops shelved along with
                                                         every other in-person group event, the Phil turned to
                                                         their friends, Sons of Serendip, for an alternative plan.

                                                         Sons of Serendip was scheduled to perform a
                                                         benefit show for the Phil in January 2021, an encore
                                                         performance to their much loved early 2020
                                                         concert. Rather than cancel the upcoming concert
                                                         due to restrictions, Kim Corben re-imagined their
                                                         performance as a special holiday show.

                                                         “I saw their holiday concert last year in person, and it
                                                         was simply beautiful, “explains Corben. “Between the
                                                         vocals and instrumentation, they transform holiday
                                                         classics into something spiritual. It’s exactly what we
                                                         need this season.”

                                                         Sons of Serendip perform their full-length concert
                                                         full of seasonal favorites. To add a little Phil magic,
                                                         Steven Karidoyanes hosts this evening of music, which
                                                         includes remote performances by the
                                                         Phil’s own musicians and some special

                                                         “While this is a three-hour show, there’s
                                                         so much music planned!” adds Corben.
                                                         “It should be exciting, too, with Steven
