A Latin American Christmas with The Newberry Consort
The Newberry Consort is once again excited to present our popular Latin American Christmas program in Chicago—this time featuring the music of Guatemala, Chile, Mexico, and beyond! Our musical Christmas pilgrimage takes us to Mexican convents, the Cathedral of Santiago, the secluded missions in the heart of the Guatemala mountains, and more. Celebrate the holiday with lively villancicos, ethereal sacred motets, and sparkling pastorales that herald the Latin-American Baroque. A free, pre-concert discussion panel will be held one hour before each concert, led by musicologist Paul G. Feller-Simmons, whose research has informed this program—including some “new” Christmas music that may not have been heard for hundreds of years. Tickets: $45 general, $65 preferred, $25 affordable access, $10 with student ID, free for children 16 and under
