The 90-minute program, recorded live Dec. 2 in SU’s historic Hendricks Chapel, features the Syracuse University Brass Ensemble (SUBE), the Hendricks Chapel Choir and the Hendricks Chapel Handbell Ringers performing individually and in combination. Musical selections include traditional carols, a cappella motets, Renaissance music for organ and brass, and a traditional Chanukah song. The concert concludes with the singing of “Silent Night” by candlelight.
