Live in the Gund Studio: the Baldwin Wallace Men's Chorus

The Gund Studio was packed with listeners, schoolchildren, staff, and even folks that heard the music from the street and came in to see the show. There was coffee, hot chocolate, and bagel bites from Bruegger's Bagels. The BW Men's Chorus, joined by soloists and instrumentalists, performed a program of all the holiday favorites.
