Ukrainian Monks sing Beautiful Christmas Carols

Ukrainian Monks sing Beautiful Christmas Carols

The second and third songs are sung in a more triumphant fashion, utilizing the full chorus singing in voice parts. Here the chorus really shines as these 14 monks fill the church with robust chords. The next one is a call and response that begins with exquisite two-part harmony, that is answered by the full chorus, singing with soft dynamics.

At around 12:30 in the video featured above, the monks begin a chant in full voice that stopped us in our tracks. The way their voices continue to grow and rise through the melody is breathtaking. The performance displays the intensity of the faith of each member of the choir and is bound to inspire all congregants present.

Language does not matter in the face of such transparent devotion. Every year we try to add a few more Christmas tunes to our collection, filling it with the best we can find while avoiding some of the less-desirable holiday tunes . The list is getting pretty full of […]

Irish singers Emer Barry and Lynn Hilary met in college – two ‘small voiced’ sopranos training in classical voice and opera. While Emer pursued opera, Lynn embraced the more natural, Celtic style of singing and became a soloist with Celtic Woman. Emer remained in the Opera world for a time, studying with English National Opera and performing small roles in Ireland. However, Emer and Lynn reconnected through their love of creating Celtic and classical crossover music (Emer with Affiniti and Lynn with CaraNua) and decided to record something special together, a unique version of Silent Night, sung in Irish and fused with Brahms Lullaby.

We live in a world where we are sometimes prone to judgement. Perception becomes our reality. In our haste, we can jump to false conclusions and opportunities to lift and lighten the loads of others are lost. As we allow the light of Christ to work miracles within our own heart, we then are empowered to work wonders in the lives of others. May His perfect example of love and compassion for all guide us in our own charity towards those around us this Christmas season and always. Please help us #LIGHTtheWORLD by tagging and sharing this video with those you love.

A special thanks to the YWCA of Salt Lake City and our wonderful fans and fellow actors who helped us portray this message of hope and healing.
