View the list below:

Monday, November 17Oratorio Choir Concert

  • Concert Hall, Carter Center for Worship and Music, 7 p.m.
    • The Oratorio Choir will perform Ola Gjeilo’s Sunrise.

Gjeilo describes the work as a spiritual and human progression—from the ethereal and cosmic to the grounded and earthly.
