Conneaut Area Senior High
Department of Music
This year we celebrate the 51st anniversary (1974-2024) of Tuba Christmas at JAMESTOWN AREA HIGH SCHOOL in Jamestown, PA.
This year is our 5th annual PymaTuba Christmas event hosted in the Pymatuning Lake Reservoir area. Created by Harvey Phillips , and coordinated through the Harvey Phillips Foundation, Tuba Christmas concerts will be presented in over 200 hundred cities throughout the United States and in several foreign countries. Phillips was inspired to create Tuba Christmas as an annual event honoring his teacher, the late William Bell, born on Christmas Day, 1902.
Every holiday season, tuba and euphonium players of all ages gather to pay respect to all of the great artists and teachers who have contributed to their heritage. Across the globe, the warm, rich organ-like sound of the tuba-euphonium choir has won the ears and hearts of every audience.
PymaTuba Christmas was started in 2018 and coordinated by Mr. Ralph Egyud, Jr. We continue to honor his love for Tuba Christmas and his memory as a music educator in the Conneaut School District. Each year, one of the 3 high schools that share the shores of the Pymatuning Lake Reservoir host the event - Conneaut Area Senior High, Jamestown Area High School or Pymatuning Valley High School.
Please mark your calendar! The 6th Annual PymaTuba Christmas is tentatively scheduled for December 13, 2025 at Pymatuning Valley High School in Andover, Ohio.
