Her December performance features an array of holiday repertoire in Ladino, English, French, Spanish, Gaelic, and Hebrew, blending cultural histories with bits of translation and storytelling to engage the audience in the diverse traditions of Christmas, Hanukkah, and beyond.
Russell Hill Rogers Musical Evenings at San Fernando Cathedral merges the historic architecture of the nation's oldest continuously operating Catholic sanctuary with enchanting music of some of the finest, award-winning artists from around the globe!
