A Midwest family tradition filled with a variety of holiday favorites, the Choir will be joined by guest artists including the Indianapolis Chamber Orchestra, acclaimed Brazilian-American baritone soloist Bruno Sandes, Indiana’s own Emmy award-winning journalist Debby Knox, who will join for a heartwarming rendition of “’Twas the Night Before Christmas,” and a visit from Santa himself.

Festival of Carols features a selection of fan favorites and traditional holiday music such as “It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year,” “The Prayer,” “O Little Town of Bethlehem,” and Handel’s “Hallelujah Chorus,” and will also bring newer compositions to the stage, including the winning piece from the Symphonic Choir’s annual Holiday Carol Commission Competition.
