Christ is Born! Glorify Him! Click on the dual painting here - the Annunciation and Maternity of the Virgin Mary, and hear Leontyne Price singing the beautiful carol, O Holy Night.
Leontyne Price was born in 1927 and became known internationally in the 1950's and 60's. She is one of the first African Americans to become a leading artist at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York City. I heard her sing Carmen at the Met during those years, and even sneaked in backstage to meet her.
Listen even more deeply to the line of the second verse which begins Christ is the Lord. Can you feel her believing? Merry Christmas everyone!
