We\u2019re also honored to be joined by four local high school choirs for this annual tradition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>KWU\u2019s Music department will be joined by choirs from Sacred Heart, Salina South, Salina Central and Southeast of Saline high schools for the production. Doors will open one hour prior to each performance, and seating is first-come, first-serve.<\/p>\n<p>The tradition of a Christmas concert at KWU dates back, at minimum, to the 1950s, when the philharmonic choir would put on its annual \u201cYule Program.\u201d While there were periodic mentions of candlelight in the title during ensuing decades, the \u201cChristmas by Candlelight\u201d title came into existence for good in 1982. The 2022 concert will mark the event\u2019s 40<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":16187,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[152],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16186","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-community"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
