Season of Light
Lavishly decorated with books of all sizes in reference to time-honored stories and beloved tales, the stage in the 21,000-seat Conference Center in Salt Lake City became a "library" for The Tabernacle Choir's celebration of all the many stories of Christmas. There were tales told through music, dance, and narrative of excited shepherds on the hills outside of Bethlehem, of heroism during wartime, of sleigh rides and caroling, of the challenges of new motherhood, and of faith in a Savior who would redeem the whole world.
The Choir's special guest at this concert, famed actress and singer Lea Salonga and renowned star of television and film Sir David Suchet, joined in the storytelling and shared their own personal accounts of the truths celebrated at Christmas. With the Choir, Orchestra, and Bells at Temple Square and the Gabriet Trumpet Ensemble, all joined together to proclaim a joyful "Noel!" at the good news of Christ's birth. The full concert is available on DVD and digital downloads, and PBS and BYUtv will broadcast edited versions of the show during the Christmas season.
