He is best known as the Artistic Director of the annual Concordia Christmas Concerts, and as an outstanding teacher and conductor. Stephen Paulus composed more than 600 works from operas and large-scale oratorios to accessible arrangements of carols and folk songs. He was the first American composer to write for the Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols at King’s College, Cambridge.
