Beginning with a flute solo of the title song, and followed by a beautiful rendition of “O Holy Night,” the program features a variety of other Christmas music, both traditional and new, ranging from a 28-voice choir including “Everything Changed That Night,” “Who Could Imagine,” both with full orchestrated accompaniment; “Advent Trilogy” with includes the songs “Come, thou Long Expected Jesus,” and “Joy to the World” with piano, flute and bells; and “The Yearning” by the internationally renowned composer Craig Courtney; a harp solo of “What Child is This” and a 14-piece instrumental ensemble including “Away in a Manger,” “Angels We Have Heard on High,” and “O Come, All Ye Faithful.”

The origin of “O Little Town of Bethlehem” will be presented in a mini-drama ending with a children’s choir. Also included is a piano solo of “Angels From the Realms of Glory,” a piano duet of “Carol of the Bells” as well as a ladies group singing “Sleep, Baby Jesus,” and a men’s four-part harmony of “God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen.”
