A musical Advent...

Day 24... Christmas Eve!

Pentatonix again, because I can't quit listening to them this year, and their version of Silent Night is so incredibly peaceful.

Here's is the album version, which I love because it really brings out Avi Kaplan's buttery-smooth bass voice, which I can listen to all day.

And here is the official video, a live version, also very beautiful. Slight changes in a few harmonies, and you get to see who sings what (including Kevin Olusola, who usually does the beatboxing--it's nice to hear him sing).

I love the reverence they show in the live version, but I like the "perfection" of the studio version. Which do you like most?

Merry Christmas Eve!

Wow. I do love really well-done a cappella music. It's so hard for me to choose between live and studio performances... It's like choosing between plays and movies - I like them both for such different reasons!

Merry Christmas to you! Thank you for such lovely music.

Those were both gorgeous! I do think I like the live version, simply because I can see them singing.

I would have loved to hear the live version, too, but, well. ;o) The usual. I did not have to google the song this time, though, since I treated myself to this album two weeks back. Really gorgeous!
