LA MIRADA, CALIF. — Two Biola University Christmas productions will celebrate the season this December. Nearly 200 students from the Biola University Conservatory of Music will present “‘A Glorious Morn”’ and Biola Theatre will present a rendition of Charles Dickens’ ‘A Christmas Carol’. The university is honored to welcome Conservatory alumna and International opera artist, Katie Van Kooten (‘01) as the guest artist to perform alongside the Biola Chorale, University Chorus, Symphony Orchestra, Symphonic Winds, and other Conservatory ensembles and soloists.
