44th Chicago Tyagaraja Utsavam – Memorial Day 2020 Highlights

Chicago Tyagaraja Utsavam welcomes everyone to join us for the 44th Chicago Tyagaraja Utsavam Festival — which is going to be all virtual and thus, very unique.  For the first time in 43 years, CTU 2020 will not be held on premise due to the COVID-19 pandemic.  Instead, we will come together during the Memorial Day Weekend 2020 to reminisce and relive with fond memories, video excerpts of various programs held over 43 glorious years.

These video excerpts will be published for viewing on the CTU YouTube Channel during the Viewing Times mentioned below over the Memorial Day Weekend.

From: 8 AM Central Time (Chicago) on Sat, 23 May 2020

To: 8 PM Central Time (Chicago) on Mon, 25 May 2020

Please await further instructions later this week.
