This choir is full of teachers who teach music. They're professional. They're not college students, hence why they sound so good
Sitting here with tears in my eyes. The message of Christ's birth and atonement is part of it, also the beautiful music and seeing many close friends that I shared some good memories with when I was at the University of Utah.

Amen. I get overwhelmed each time I hear this song.
Really beautiful, I listen it once, twice....I love this son.
During my last year of undergraduate studies, I was blessed to be able to perform this very arrangement. Its a time of my life that I miss deeply, a part of friendships and familial bonds that aren't what they were. Thank you for sharing this where others can see it, you have helped to preserve a precious memory through your performance. You have also reminded me how desperate men are to find reason to give praise-- how deeply men hunger to find a reason to give way to joy.
I cried like a baby. Multiple times.

You and me both. It was my favorite Christmas song as a young kid, probably due to the simple melody, which great songs so often have. Just ask the Beatles. I also got emotional in the movie The Color Purple when Oprah approaches the house near dusk and you can hear The First Noel in the background.
I'm so glad I got to perform this with my choir.

There are a lot of performances of this around You Tube, but even after 10 years, this is still the gold standard of them.

I've had the pleasure of singing this arrangement. I love singing the tenor part. These kids are fantastic. I'm glad to have discovered them.

@@gamerkenzopro I'm sorry, I just saw your reply. I don't have a copy of it. it belongs to the chorale that I sang in several years ago.
One trait of a great choir is how they sing their schwas. These are superbly delightful.
A beautiful song and they have a beautiful voices they sing this song with their hearts especially! God bless Guys!
Everything they do is stunningly beautiful - the pianist is quite amazing
I love Dan's arrangements! The music truly penetrates its meaning into your heart, especially when "Noel" begins building at 2:26.
UU Singers nail it again! I use many of their videos to learn my own choir music. Tears sting my eyes each time I listen to (or sing) this piece, and I'm an atheist. Absolutely gorgeous.

The arranger is Dan Forrest. This is one of the best, maybe even the best, arrangements of The First Noel that I've sung.
Phenomenal performance. No more words to express.
Certainly the best performance & arrangement of this song I've had the chance to hear. Stunning singers, pianist and conductor. Everything is beautiful. Thank you for this wonderful Christmas gift. Merry Christmas to you all. Greetings from France

+Moneygetjealous well the holidays are here. may GOD bring you and your family love peace and joy.. such a sad time of year for me but at the same time it brings a piece of comfort to my heart and soul.. happy holidays....
[3:46] jusqu'à la fin, un délice pour les oreilles. Tout en douceur, en retenu, je ne suis pas un professionnel de choral mais on sent tout le travail, le talent. Bravo
Noel is my name...so proud thank you...
I will listen to ANYTHING this group sings. Their singing is flawless, perfectly blended and conducted. You can see the fervor and emotion on their faces. People are making fun of Mormons too much lately: this song is sung with such FAITH, and isn't it in short supply right now??
Excellent choir... i love this song. How i wish i was part of this choir.
Wow! They really do sound like angels from heaven!!
Breathtakingly beautiful...

One of the best university choirs! I love their warm tone and expression!
Oh man.....this an incredible arrangement. The world just stands still when hearing this. So incredibly beautiful and moving- love the pianist too!
Excellent choir, piano and arr./ harmonization!!! BRAVO!!!
I listen to it twice a day since about 4 Weeks. Beautiful, beautiful beautiful !! Thank you !
My favorite Christmas song! Unbelievable how amazing this version is. Good job!!
..the emotion of the piece is reflected on the expression of the singers! beautiful!
It is like a breath of fresh air listening to this divine arrangement, as compared to the traditional ones so often heard!
I've been singing along with this version to learn the tenor part - but it is the feeling in your interpretation of the arrangement that makes this piece so moving. Thanks for posting!
Oh my goodness. That was so beautiful.
I'm Jewish, but I still love listening to this song.
Simply beautiful, and very powerful. Kudos to the cameramen for capturing the performance so well, and thank you so much for not spoiling the powerful ending with applause. You allowed the song to become a prayer. This is one of the finest I have heard/seen in your playlist so far. Thank you for bringing so much reverence into your performance.
A great performance in every way! Thank you for such a wonderful blessing.
Gorgeous, especially around this time of year.
oh godness, it's a amazing arr. the singers can show how beautiful is the song, giving us, hope, peace, thanks for all
Love this song. I've listened this song steadily.
they are so amazing!!!
Love the arrangement, love the voices, love the pianist, (except for the clunker at 0:37 - ouch!, and maybe they could have raised the lid a notch), love the beautiful women and beautiful venue! Best recording I've heard so far on youtube and it's not even the orchestra arrangement. Works great. Wish I could hear them with orchestra in a cathedral with reverb! omg! Every time I find a collegiate recording I love, it was done years ago, and I can't help but wonder where all the students are now and what they're doing. We need choir reunions where fans can join in and sing it with them. It may not be as good, but man it sure would be fun! Sign me up! I'd be there if I had to take Greyhound overnight and come right back home. What a joy a concert experience with them would be, as long as we get to use the music and not have to memorize it. Us amateurs don't have time for memorization and that's why church choirs don't usually make you do it. Some do, but I couldn't be in those.
So beautiful! Thanks for uploading!!
Love this song
They are truly blessed! I love them!
Absolutely stunning...utterly beautiful, brought shivers and tears...keep up the most excellent work.
Magnificent... Well done..the best version of this song, I ever heard

My all time favorite Christmas piece
Absolutely beautiful! Glory be the God!
Damn, I had to stop myself from crying three different times. Such a pure and beautiful sound~
Wow... so amazing..the ending was like going to heaven...moved me to tears...we are singing this for Christmas, I hope we do it half as well... Great job choir!! Eileen, Babylon NY
