 Nativity:
A Celebration of the Savior’s Birth
Harp and Violin
Arranged, produced, and performed by Amy Osmond and Cate Todd
Associate producers Greg Hansen and Steve Lerud
There is no better way to recount and celebrate the remarkable
events surrounding the birth of our Savior than through sacred
scripture with beautiful, inspired music. Nativity: A Celebration
of the Savior’s
Birth recounts the story of the Savior’s birth through magnificent
instrumental music marvelously performed on harp and violin, with
woodwinds and percussion. The songs are programmed to gently lead
the listener chronologically through the joyous events of the Nativity.
From the majestic pronouncement of Jesus’ birth in O Holy
Night to the sureness of His stature in Silent Night,
scriptural texts accompany each song to introduce and tie this sacred
story together. From the profound Prophetic pronouncements of Isaiah,
to the reassuring revelation to the Prophet Nephi of His imminent
birth, to the calm reassurance of his divinity in the words of President
Gordon B. Hinckley. |
