Editorial Reviews

Each year, the Christmas concert presented by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square is seen by more than 85,000 people live and by millions more via television broadcast. It is a full scale production featuring world- class musicians, soloists, dancers, narrators, and music that leaves viewers in awe of the Choir's unmatched magnitude and musicality. Following the success of last year's CD Rejoice and Be Merry, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir presents Ring Christmas Bells, the next musical masterpiece in a series of highly acclaimed and commercially successful holiday albums. Featuring Brian Stokes Mitchell, dubbed by the New York Times as "Broadway's last leading man," and Edward Herrmann (Gilmore Girls; Nixon), Ring Christmas Bells is a holiday experience every family will want to have.

5.0 out of 5 stars Edward Herrmann is not to be missed., December 13, 2009

This review is from: Ring Christmas Bells (DVD)

The annual Mormon Tabernacle Choir Temple Square Christmas concert is always excellent in every way, from the choice of performers and the high quality of the performances to the uplift of the stories and songs. I have many wonderful memories of these programs; they bring Christmas right into the heart. But Edward Herrmann's telling of the story of Longfellow coming through severe trials to write I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day (with the choir singing the carol) caps them all. I hear the carol in a way I never did before. Brian Stokes Mitchell is terrific too.

I saw this concert and was amazed at the feelings of comfort, cheer, and sincere good tidings that my family and I experienced as we celebrated the Christmas Season with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. Truly a magnificent and heartfelt experience.

This review is from: Ring Christmas Bells (DVD)

I was fortunate enough to attend this concert in person and have purchased the DVD as well. This concert captures the true spirit of Christmas. Brian Stokes Mitchell is an incredible talent. He truly is one of the worlds greatest vocalists. The Mormon Tabernacle Choir, as always, is fantastic, and Edward Herman's narration of Longfellow's Christmas is very moving. It is a show the whole family will enjoy, and is an instant classic that will be enjoyed year after year. I highly recommend it.
