'Twas the Night Before Christmas - University of Utah Combined Choirs

[amandaggogo]

Fantastic performance of this! Brings back memories, The elementary school chior I was in sang this one year. It's such a fun song to sing!

[MrDRL65]

I Love this, Thank You!

[stellarcon]

I have the solo at around 5:00 at my school.. Our performance is tomorrow and I've only rehearsed my part twice. Yikes!

[ChristinaTheTuba]

i love this

[BeautifulThanq1]

Incredible You Guyss..,,! My Class Iss Doing This Song Wednesday..,,!! =) Yayyy..,,

[gmh952]

BRAVO!! The staging is fun, but the true star of the show is how well the chorus tells the story musically. Fine chorus!!

[NRPERRYMAN1]

My high school choir is doing this song year! Very very fun! I have the second solo ( and then in a twinkling). We broke up the three solo in the middle!

[Feleciapink22]

this is so beautiful. My dad sung this when he was in high school for choir. His choir sounded just as beautiful ^_^ (the performances are on a record)

[goodtoseeyou01]

Utah has so much talent and some of the most kindest people in the world. God bless them!

[cookiepizza99]

my 6th grade choir is singing this and we are all sopranos so we don't sound as good as them

[xXTheKittyLovaXx]

My middle school Chorus has done this song every year for about 8 or 9 years and I have the solo around 5:00... but about an octave or so higher.

[brigmahf]

@goldenmcflappy Unless your choir is filled with him, you aren't even close. Besides, his voice isn't made for choral blend. He is a brilliant soloist, but he would not do well with a full choir blend.

[NightStar787]

@goldenmcflappy I highly doubt that, when I was in middle school we didn't sound half as good as these guys do

[NightStar787]

I wish I could sing like them, my voice keeps doing this weird airy thing when I try singing high notes and it ticks me off

[Chicky9433]

@goldenmcflappy Thats not even likley at all. your voices havent grown and this is one of the best choirs in the country.

[livexitxupxx]

haha my highschool choir class is singing this for the holiday concert... we dont sound like them...

[neighbor1961]

I don't care to admit it, They're all so cute! They bring me tears of joy to hear them.

[puppyluvnk]

My school's 8th grade chorus is singing this. I am the pianist. It's amazing... although it's 24 pages long. But it's so fun to play!

[JohnVelasquez1873]

EVERYBODY if your performing this HAVE FUN WITH IT its a CHRISTMAS song yeah it is important to sing this song well but it shouldn't get in the way of the joy when you do sing it so relax :D

[mallory627]

At choir teacher had officially told us that we are doing this song for our Winter concert.

When I saw this I was amazed and terrified at the same time due to our teacher saying that we are going to have to be exactly like that when we do the concert...

[brandyel2]

@mallory627 Hey Mallory I was excited when Ms. Dooley told us

[Ipinkygirl]

my mixed chorus class is singing this for our winter concert. My teacher actually showed us this exact video, it was amazing! I was all like "How does she expect us to do this?!" lol, but this song is amazing! I cant wait to see how we do!

[brandyel2]

@Ipinkygirl Hi Rebecca ! I know Ms. Dooley is crazy to think we can do this

[Ipinkygirl]

@brandyel2 i really dont know, bee-bee.

[brandyel2]

@Ipinkygirl No bee bee

[tomisaballer]

this is shit. my video is way better you idiots

[MungoMaureen]

Can't believe I stumbled onto this one. Our junior high scool choir did this song in our Christmas concert 35 years ago. Have not heard it again until now. Thanks for posting it

[TheMadTokerx]

whos santa clause



[etbella3]

Bravo!

[MusicDirector25]

I want to hear that amazing-looking organ behind them.

[jazznik2]

Great! This is one of my favorite Xmas songs, and noone ever plays it. I hadnt heard this in years, so I decided to look for it on YouTube and was very pleased to find this. Excellent performance, made even better by the little humorous nuances and the general liveliness and bubblyness of the young performers.

[DonGatto63]

OMGosh...I have not heard that song in about 38 years. I performed that song in the first ever Christmas Choir for my grammer school. The words and melody are exactly as I remember them...although their showmanship is much better than a bunch of 4th graders were able to perform. Thank you for such a wonderful memory. God Bless Each And Every One Of You...Merry Christmas.

[karlakor]

@DonGatto63 Like you, I haven't heard this song in years! I was delighted and surprised to find it here at YouTube. My 8th grade choir performed this song 43 years ago, and I know I have not heard it since, but it is just as I remembered it.

[Thebaneofyourexistan]

We're singing this song today for a concert with our High School chorale and the Community Chorus. :D

[MinagiV]

After reading the poem to my son tonight, I felt the urge to listen to the song. My mother had it on a record, and I was very glad to find this particular video!  Absolutely adorable, and beautifully sung!!

[Tight2go]

awsome just awsome

[PudgyPiglets]

Im in 6th grade we sing this in select chorus :D

[NearIsLove]

OMG. So goooooood. AMAZING

[MelMaxGum]

They sound so good!

[srkinsman]

I sang this song in college oh so many years ago. I love to hear it again every year as Christmas time nears. I LOVE THIS PERFORMANCE!! The singing is exceptional and the choreography is great. It made me sing and laugh. Thanks.

[choirfreak26]

I remember listening to this song on the Time Life Treasury of Christmas tape when I was little. Thanks for beautifully bringing back a great memory :)

[CEcubedproductions]

beaauuutttiiifffulll.

my high school choir is doing this song for our christmas concert.

[ArtlCreation]

my high school choir class is doing this also, but it sucks.... really bad the problem is with the guys

[mumps59]

Beautiful beautiful beautiful. Thank you for this post! Takes me back to Encina HS in Sacramento when we'd do this every year under Jack Carey. Great memories.

[carrotcait]

Gorgeous. I love the staging, and the soloist around 5:00.

[Dwfradsk8r]

this is so cool

[99ChoirBoy]

We finally found someone who did this song! I have not heard this song performed since we sang it in our grade school Christmas play way back when. I can't believe there was an entire middle section that I completely forgot, I thought it was just a line or two, but it all came back to me when I finally heard it again. Thank you University of Utah!

[carlykins620]

That was so amazing. Our little high school choir has nothing on them.

[kimmerly22]

This is GREAT!!!! I'm also in the SGLC and cannot wait to perform it this weekend!! :-)

[itsAlli]

:) beautifully done.

[itbarthur4u]

A nicely polished performance. I looked this up because my chorus, SGLC, will be doing this Dec 4 & 5, 09. We are an all volunteer 'no audition' chorus in Syracuse NY. Happy Holidays!

[drcrumpler]

I remember doing this when I was in high school. I still have the book of music. I haven't heard this in a zillion years. What

wonderful memories it brings back.

[turnedbrunette]

This was great! its a tradition in one of the choirs at my school to do this song, there is only 24 of us so its different and we have the freedom to do more choreography. But this was still an amazing performance. I loved the 2 men at the end. BRAVO!

[x4xeverxx]

we r singing this song at our christmas concert this year, i really like it...used to be my favorite christmas book!!

[ez344]

THIS WAS GREAT!!!!! I LOVED IT

[JezziProductions]

[NotLgn]

This is really good!

We are doing this song at my school, you guys did great
