Since its inception in 2010, Cantus Youth Choirs has performed Mack Wilberg's transcendent arrangement of the ultimate Christmas hymn, O Holy Night, as the finale number of our Winter Concert. Over the years, soprano Melissa Heath and organist David Young have performed this number with Cantus multiple times over the years, and Cantus is thrilled to have their collaboration on this timeless rendition.
This music video was released theatrically and premiered on 7 screens at the Eagle Luxe Theatre on December 9th. Something To Believe In, and Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays were also premiered.
