Ray Charles - Celebrates A Gospel ChristmasIcon_movClass_E

2004, 87 minutes, Rated E

In an exciting move that marked music history, legendary superstar Ray Charles was joined by the world famous Voices of Jubilation Gospel Choir of Newark New Jersey for this first-ever Christmas Music Special. They are combining their talents in this unprecedented musical showcase not only to entertain but also to spread positive messages to a wide audience.

What makes this endeavor so special is that the 12-time Grammy winner Charles has never performed gospel music in a live concert setting before. In this spectacular performance, Ray returns to his Gospel roots and the music that gave him his start. Of course, Ray Charles brings his own personal jazz/rhythm and blues interpretation to these traditional holiday favorites. This unique marriage of gospel and holiday music will touch your soul.

The show includes such favorites as:

  • The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire)
  • Little Drummer Boy
  • Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas
  • Silent Night
  • The First Noel
  • Hark the Herald Angels Sing
  • Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer
  • and many more.

Charles is one of the most well-known and beloved personalities of the Twentieth Century. "I was born with music inside me," he simply remarks in his autobiography.
