KNOXVILLE – The School of Music’s Board of Advisers at the University of Tennessee is sponsoring a Holiday Musicale to benefit the School’s student scholarship fund.

Hosted by Board member Bill Rukeyser and his wife Elisabeth, the event will be held Sunday, Dec. 15 from 4 to 6 p.m. and will feature live performances of holiday music performed by UT Music faculty and students.

“School of Music musicales are special events in lovely private homes. A wide variety of beautiful holiday music is played and delicious foods and wines served,” says Board chairperson, Sheena McCall. “It is entertaining, fun and festive.”
