Christmas Concert
Sunday, Dec. 7th at 7:30 pm
Celebrate the season with The Womb of Winter: A Christmas Concert, a heartfelt musical journey honoring the divine mother, the quiet beauty of winter, and the first glimmers of returning light.
The evening blends original compositions, fresh arrangements of Seasonal Favorites, and music that spans centuries—from Bach and Hildegard of Bingen to Joni Mitchell—all exquisitely reimagined through the Turas Ensemble’s signature style, blurring the lines between folk, classical, and contemporary traditions while embracing the beauty of the female voice. This special, one-time-only performance grows the duo to include harp, violin, cello, and additional voices for an unforgettably rich experience of Turas’s unique musical vision.
