A Take 6 Christmas
City Winery Philadelphia presents A Take 6 Christmas live on Tuesday, December 15th at 7:30pm.
Through their seamless blend of jazz, gospel, R&B, a cappella and beyond, iconic vocal group TAKE 6 stands as a living testament to the enduring power of human voices coming together. With jazz as their compass and gospel at their foundation, Claude McKnight, Mark Kibble, Dave Thomas, Alvin Chea, Joel Kibble and Khristian Dentley once again expand an expansive musical landscape with precision, soul, joy and an unwavering commitment to harmonic excellence.
With Rhapsody, due in Spring 2027, Take 6 returns to the rich possibilities of the jazz tradition, approaching its repertoire not as a collection of monuments to preserve, but as living music to explore and reimagine. The album draws inspiration from the rhapsody itself—a musical form associated with freedom, contrast, emotional expression and an openness to unexpected directions.
From "Rhapsody in Blue" and "Take Five" to "It Don't Mean a Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing)" and "Mood Indigo,” familiar compositions become opportunities for fresh harmonic invention, rhythmic interplay and the distinctive conversational exchange of six voices. Their interpretations honor the composers while demonstrating how great music continues to reveal new dimensions in the hands—and voices—of imaginative Artists.
Across generations, traditions and musical cultures, they continue welcoming strangers to the chorus, reminding us that harmony is not merely something we hear, but something we create together.
