An annual holiday event, last year's concert was billed as the highest-viewed holiday program in the PBS schedule. A national institution in Norway, Sissel has sung all over the world, selling six million solo albums. She contributed the haunting, ethereal vocal tracks for the soundtrack to Titanic. Musically rich and visually stunning, this year's concert blends traditional classics such as "Away in a Manger" and "Silent Night" with contemporary favorites such as "Spirit of the Season" from The Polar Express. Highlights include Sissel's spine-tingling performance of "In the Bleak Mid-Winter," along with her reading of the Christmas story from the New Testament and her recounting of the Norwegian tradition of Santa Lucia. The program's international theme translates beautifully to the television screen with an alpine village set with stained-glass church windows, snow-covered rooftops and brightly lit trees. More than 50 dancers contribute to the festivities with a new processional by associate conductor Mack Wilberg, set to "Bring a Torch, Jeanette, Isabella." The production was recorded from four sold-out concerts performed in December 2006 in Salt Lake City to combined audiences of approximately 85,000 people. This marks the eighth Christmas concert with the Choir that KUED Salt Lake City has produced for PBS. The concert is conducted by Craig Jessop and Mack Wilberg, with organists John Longhurst, Clay Christiansen and Richard Elliott. Thomas Waldron conducts the Bells on Temple Square. Carol Iwasaki from the University of Utah Department of Ballet choreographed dancers who perform during the
