"ALWAYS on Christmas night there was music..." Despite COVID, still a Vox Humana tradition. We are excited to present a newly recorded online version of A Child...'s Christmas in Wales, with our beloved narrator, Melville Jones. Instead of the usual in-person event, this year we will be sharing a video of Melville reading the story interspersed with seasonal music recorded by individual choir members. Best enjoyed in high-definition from the comfort of your home with a bubble of family and friends. Perfect for all ages and about 45 mins in duration. The video will be available throughout the holidays beginning on December 24th at 2:30 PM (Pacific Time). You'll be able to view it online through: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/.../UCU7rPIz8RBHhgWXIfy1PctQ/videos FaceBook: https://www.facebook.com/VoxHumanaChamberChoir/videos/
