Lead off the Festival of Lights with a little musical sustenance. Tune in for David Ludwig’s Hanukkah Cantata and Ludwig Altman’s Theme and Variations on ‘Ma’oz Tzur.’ Then stick around for A Klezmer Nutcracker, performed by the Boston-based ensemble Shirim. It’s a sound foundation for eight days of fried food, sugar, and cheese. We’ve got oil to burn, this Sunday at 10 pm.
