Burritt to perform with Conspirare
“Conspirare Christmas” at the Long Center Buy tickets!
Five-time Grammy®-nominated Conspirare performs the eighteenth annual edition of its incomparable holiday concert. Always magical, always unique, “Conspirare Christmas” features artistic director Craig Hella Johnson’s renowned “collage” programming that melds music of many centuries and styles into one intensely meaningful whole.
The exquisite artistry of Conspirare’s professional singers is complemented by three guest artists who are long-time Conspirare collaborators: sparkling soprano and Austin favorite Mela Dailey, Seattle-based singer songwriter Matt Alber, and percussionist Tom Burritt, recently named “Best of Austin” by the Austin Chronicle.
“Conspirare Christmas” is one of Austin’s most popular holiday experiences. Performances at its original venue The Carillon on Exposition – an intimate chapel-like space – always sell out early; this year’s performances at that venue were sold out by mid-October. The Long Center performance on December 5 enables a larger audience to experience the world-class artistic quality and unique programming of Conspirare’s holiday concert, at a range of ticket prices to fit every budget.
“Conspirare Christmas” and the Holiday Gala are sponsored by season sustaining underwriter South Texas Money Management.
