Celebrate the Holiday Season with the Soprano’s First-Ever Christmas Special
In celebration of the holidays, the world’s best-selling soprano and legendary Grammy® Award-nominated artist performs her first-ever Christmas special from the beautiful Christ Church Spitalfields in London. Transforming the iconic and historic setting into an intimate winter wonderland, SARAH BRIGHTMAN: A CHRISTMAS SYMPHONY airs Saturday, November 25 at 9:30 pm on WOUB.
Sarah breathes new life into a bevy of holiday classics and festive fan favorites for the season. She handpicked the set, which explores various eras of the Christmas canon, and performs “Silent Night,” “I Believe In Father Christmas,” “Ave Maria,” “Colder Than Winter,” “Amazing Grace” and more.
And since it wouldn’t be the holidays without friends, Sarah is joined by special guests Aled Jones (the voice of “The Snowman”) and choir Gregorian. She also reunites with very special guest Andrew Lloyd Webber for a beautiful new arrangement of “Christmas Dream,” a holiday classic written by Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice. Additional songs featured include “Coventry Carol,” the Nutcracker overture, “Walking in the Air” and “Pie Jesu.”
