(Christmas) Music To Our Ears

If you’ve had it up the wazoo with chestnuts and the friggin’ fire — but still yearn for Christmas music — you’re in luck.

WWPT-FM (90.3 “Wrecker Radio”) is airing this year’s Candlelight Concert, now through Wednesday. You’ll hear beautiful, sophisticated music, lovingly played and sung.

As an added bonus, the Candlelight Concert alternates on WWPT with “It’s a Wonderful Life.” This “old-time radio broadcast” — a combined effort of Staples Players and the audio production class — is a must-listen, too.

Will Haskell, Keleigh Brockman and Bryan Gannon intently perform "It's a Wonderful Life."

It’s the Princeton Nassoons, who performed Thursday night at the Seabury Center.

Alan Southworth — a Staples grad, now president of the famed a cappella group — is shown at the beginning of the video presenting flowers to his mother, Fran. She then joins her son’s group for a lovely rendition of Joni Mitchell’s “River.”

Merry Christmas!

  1. That concert w the Nassoons was so lovely and Frannie Southworth’s rendition of that Joni Mitchell song was exquisite. It was a jewel of an evening in Westport!
