Find links below to the videos and lyric sheets so you can sing along. Thank you, Buzz, for this wonderful Christmas gift!

Neave Trio

The Neave Trio, Faculty Ensemble-in-Residence at the Longy School of Music of Bard College, are no strangers to First Church; they performed a benefit concert in our sanctuary on behalf of First Church’s Homeless Ministries in 2019. Here they perform several beloved carols as chamber music for violin, cello, and piano. Find the video here and the lyric sheet here.
