PREVIEW | Orchestra Toronto, Sultans Of String And Guest Artists Present Christmas Caravan Orchestra Toronto and conductor Michael Newnham will team up with Sultans of String and a few special guests for Christmas Caravan, a concert on December 7.

We’re excited about Sunday’s concert with Orchestra Toronto! The magic of orchestral collaborations is using the strengths of both cultures; the improvisation of our band members and the technical prowess of the symphony, being able to read anything you put in
