Christmas Prism 2011
We invite you to hear again—or for the first time—the 5th Annual Houghton Prism. In this year’s program, Heaven and Nature Sing, Dr. Brandon Johnson weaves together a magnificent tapestry of new and familiar Christmas music—leaving one with a powerful sense of both the proclamation and the mystery of God’s coming to be among us. Over 200 of our students have worked for months to prepare this gift for their audiences.
Contact the Campus Store for information about purchasing the Christmas Prism 2011 CD.
