For unto us a child is born,

the Everlasting Father,
the Prince of Peace.

[tinythechick]

does anyone know what version of this song is being played? who it is by?

[jormundgard]

it is conducted by Marc Minkowski and performed by "Les Musiciens du Louvre".

Not sure what to make of this. Actually, the prisoners' attempts were more worthy of listening and viewing than the erractic and way-too-fast choral overlay. Good on these guys for finding the voice and heartiest congratulations to whoever it was who trained them (musically). There should be so much more music making in these correctional institutions.
