Celebrating a non-traditional Christmas with the Tabernacle Choir

The Christmas season is a time for celebration and family traditions, but with the current coronavirus pandemic, the 2020 holiday season is going to be a bit non-traditional. For audiences around the world, TheTabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square’s Christmas concerts have been an annual way of celebrating the season. While an abundance of precautions has canceled the live concerts this year, there are some wonderful ways to continue to blend the magical music of the Choir into the festive season. Tabernacle Choir Music Director Mack Wilberg, as well as Choir President Ron Jarrett, join the Church News Podcast to explore the extensive history of “America's Choir” and how their award-winning melodies can continue to warm listeners' hearts this winter.
