Welcome to a special Christmas episode of In Good Faith. Today we’ll share Christmas carols from local choirs—and it was quite a treat to be in the recording sessions as this music came together. We’ll hear from Bridge Creek Bell Choir, as well as Amplifyre and 1Achord, two A Cappella groups. We also have Utah Baroque, the BYU Jazz Ensembles (there are 2!), and the Irish band An Rogaine Dubh. We hope you enjoy our Choir Christmas and that this holy music brings light and peace into your December.
