Description
The Joy of Christmas combines the talent of the world-famous Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square with one of the most enduring and beloved stars of film, theater, and television. In this extraordinary concert, the spirit of Christmas comes alive with reverence, joy, and a bit of childhood magic. Veteran actress and Academy and Tony Award-winner Angela Lansbury sings "We Need a Little Christmas," "Not While I'm Around," and "Beauty and the Beast," and captivates with her reading of "Trouble at the Inn" and the retelling of the Savior's birth from the biblical account in Luke.
Performing selections including "Joy to the World," "For Unto Us a Child Is Born," "Hark! the Herald Angels Sing," and "I Saw Three Ships," the 360-voice Mormon Tabernacle Choir delivers a holiday feast for the soul. Equally superb, the Orchestra at Temple Square enchants with such favorites as "Carol of the Bells" and "March of the Toys" from Babes in Toyland.
The Joy of Christmas will thrill audiences young and old with the unparalleled performance of these exceptional artists.
The DVD edition includes exclusive interviews with Angela Lansbury and Music Director Craig Jessop.
