“Carol of the Bells” and “Deck the Halls” share the advertised program with “Frosty the Snowman” and music from The Nutcracker. That mix sets up A Merry Christmas with Brass featuring the Dallas Brass, a one-night concert at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 5, 2026, at Bennett Gordon Hall at Ravinia Festival in Highland Park.
The event listing describes a program of sacred and secular holiday selections. Its named examples range from familiar carols to a popular seasonal song and music from The Nutcracker, suggesting a broader mix than a concert devoted only to traditional hymns or carols.
Those titles are examples, not a complete setlist or running order. If a particular piece is the reason to attend, the listing does not confirm that it will be performed in a specific arrangement or at a particular point in the concert.
