There’s no time quite like the Christmas season on the Holy Cross campus.
To get a taste of what the most wonderful time of the year feels like on Mount St. James, watch this video with the College Choir, led by guest conductor Christopher Shepard, performing “Lo, How A Rose E’er Blooming” during the annual Advent Festival of Lessons and Carols on Dec. 8. You’ll see a flurry of festive campus scenes float by, including the crèche on the Dinand Library steps and Christmas tree on O’Kane Porch.

Enjoyed the sound & scenes of Christmas time at Holy Cross. I sang this piece (TTBB) while
in college and was delighted to sing it again along with the HC choir. Great job. Please post it again next Dec.
We have received several videos this Christmas. None have touched us like this one has. As we viewed this my wife and I both mentioned how fortunate our son is to have the opportunity of an education at Holy Cross. A true blessing has been bestowed upon our family. Thank you. We are most grateful to be a part of the Holy Cross family. Merry Christmas!
A wonderful Christmas gift, and like the best presents, unexpected and incredibly generous and beautiful. It brought back the very best of memories and those that are uniquely Holy Cross — shared by every generation of HC students in their own way, but always the same in a way. Thank you.
This made my day – thank you so much! Merry Christmas everyone!
Very nice. Thank you.
I was left in awe. Beautifully done. I don’t usually get too emotional but I could not help it upon hearing “Lo How a Rose.” It brings back so many wonderful memories.
That was just wonderful. Thank you so much.
Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year to all on Mt. St. James.
See you in June.
So moving! Beautiful job…so proud that I will have two children at Holy Cross next year!
This video brings tears to my eyes. Beautiful! Thank you!
Merry Christmas to the Holy Cross family!
And, peace, joy and many blessings for 2012.

Absolutely beautiful and peaceful. It was a nice music break during a very busy season! Wish I were there in person.
Well done!
Christmas blessings to all…
I sang in an earlier iteration of the HC choir and really enjoy hearing them with mixed voices. Please publish more of this wonderful group!
Having attended The Cross during the all male time, I was deeply moved hearing the blend of female voices with the males in the choir. Thank you for the lovely gift.
Thank you for the beautiful video message – it was very moving. Well done.
