2010 Year's End (Part 2)

Candlelight Massed Choir and Processional
at Disney World's EPCOT

Last Night (Dec-20-2010) I went to the Candlelight Processional at EPCOT. This is one of my favorite Christmas Programs. There is a reading of the Christmas Story from the Bible, interspersed with gorgeously arranged music.


The music includes “Shout for Joy”, “O Come All Ye Faithful”, “Il Est Ne”, “O Holy Night”, “Angels From The Realms Of Glory”, “Away In A Manger”, “Rejoice With Exceeding Great Joy”, “What Child Is This”, “Do You Hear What I Hear”, “Silent Night”, “Joy To The World”, and “The Hallelujah Chorus”. The music is played by The Walt Disney World Orchestra and sung by a choir consisting of The Walt Disney World Cast Choir, The Voices of Liberty and Guest Choirs (mostly high school students) from all over the US, Canada and they even had a choir from the UK this year!

Trace Adkins was the narrator we listened to this year. His deep bass voice was hypnotic and gorgeous to listen to. It was a really fun night to share with Mom, Dad, Erik and Matt. I am so blessed to be able to listen to such a beautiful Christmas program.

  1. Lucky! The Candlelight Processional is my personal favorite event at EPCOT. Especially the "Rejoice With Exceeding Great Joy" number. Thank you for sharing the pretty pictures and helping remember when we have seen it together.
