Join Grammy-winning host Sheryl Crow and nearly 700 student musicians, Belmont School of Music faculty and Nashville Children’s Choir for a production of traditional carols, classical masterworks, world music and light-hearted seasonal favorites.

This year’s edition of Christmas at the Belmont features Belmont Chorale, University Orchestra, Musical Theatre Ensemble, Jazzmin, Bluegrass Ensemble and Jazz Band 1. The music crosses a number of genres with songs such as “Angels We Have Heard on High,” “Run, Run Rudolf,” “What Child is This?” “Russian Dance” from The Nutcracker and the beautiful “There Is a Star,” performed by Sheryl Crow.

“I’m thrilled to appear as this year’s Christmas at the Belmont guest artist,” Crow said. “It’s an honor to be asked to share the stage with hundreds of impressive student musicians and join in this beautiful Christmas tradition. I look forward to celebrating the holiday season with so many viewers across the country.”

The performance and taping of Christmas at the Belmont returns for the sixth time to Nashville’s Schermerhorn Symphony Center, one of the few venues in the world featuring natural lighting and state-of-the-art acoustics, including motorized acoustic drapes and an acoustical isolation joint that encircles the entire concert hall and prevents sound waves traveling into or out of the hall.
