Newberry Consort celebrates holidays with 'A Mexican Christmas'
CHICAGO (WLS) -- The Newberry Consort's annual holiday tradition returns from Dec. 9-11.
Audiences are transported back to 17th-century Mexico City at Christmastime, as a cast of nearly 30 musicians recreates the glorious singing of cloistered nuns soaring over the walls of their convent and filling the square while a street band plays villancicos -- joyful folk music of praise and celebration.
