About this performance
8 p.m. Polsky Theatre
Holiday music from around the world showcases what is referred to in both the Jewish and Hindu traditions as the Festival of Lights.
From the songs of Chanukah, to the music of India’s Dewali, to the old English carols and Scottish reels of the 16th century, Turtle Island Quartet explores the music that has been part of winter holiday celebrations for centuries.
The program also features music from Vince Guaraldi’s beloved A Charlie Brown Christmas, as well as famous classical gems and Te Deum.
Te Deum, Kansas City's Voice for Sacred Music, is a chamber vocal ensemble dedicated to excellence in performance, with an interfaith message that inspires all segments of the Kansas City community.
