After two solid days of decorating, setting up cameras and equipment, designing lighting, and organizing and corralling hundreds of Belmont music students, not including the weeks of preparation, this year\u2019s production is finally in the can.  This past Monday night, hundreds of family members and music lovers filed into the Schermerhorn Symphony Center with the likes of <strong>Barbara Mandrell<\/strong>, figure skater <strong>Scott Hamilton<\/strong> and WKRN\u2019s <strong>Anne Holt<\/strong> to be a part of Belmont University\u2019s annual showcasing of the talented students in its music school.  This is not to say that the program is now sitting on a shelf waiting to be aired.  As I write this, the producers, director and editor are working around the clock to insure that the program you see on your television screen is the best it can possibly be.  This year\u2019s production of <em><strong>Christmas at Belmont<\/strong><\/em> was hosted by the multiple Grammy-Award winning <strong>Trisha Yearwood<\/strong>.  Growing up listening to country, I have often underestimated how amazing many of these artists are.  With all the vocal enhancing done in the recording studios today, it\u2019s easy to be disappointed when hearing someone sing live.  Not so with Ms. Yearwood.  Sitting in the Schermerhorn Symphony Center and listening to her sing such songs as \u201cTake a Walk Through Bethlehem\u201d and \u201cI Heard the Bells on Christmas Day\u201d was breathtaking, and that was just during the rehearsal.<\/p>\n<p>The Belmont music students weren\u2019t too shabby either.  When you hear songs over and over again as people are trying to get the lightening right and get close-up shots of instruments with their cameras, you begin to pick out favorite songs or moments.  In my opinion, one of the best moments in the entire production is an arrangement of \u201cNoel\u201d (Todd Smith) featuring every choir, chorale and ensemble member Belmont had present.  Seeing hundreds of students snap to attention and begin to clap and sway as they sang to the beat of a few drums, coupled with the Laura Turner Hall\u2019s amazing acoustics, was an incredible experience.  Other personal favorites were the Percussion Ensemble\u2019s performance of \u201cPatapan\u201d and the Bluegrass Ensemble\u2019s rendition of Patty Loveless\u2019 \u201cSanta Train.\u201d  These performances were joined by arrangements of \u201cCarol of the Bells,\u201d \u201cWinter Wonderland,\u201d \u201cAve Maria\u201d and \u201cChristmas Fantasy\u201d to name a few, all of which I\u2019m sure topped somebody\u2019s list of favorites.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Christmas at Belmont<\/strong><\/em> is an elaborate production.  It takes hundreds of people to pull it off, and weeks of solid dedication from the staff here at NPT, to bring it to you.  At a time of year when holiday music specials are the name of the game, it\u2019s hard to make time for them all and still do your holiday partying, shopping, and traveling.  If you only have time for one, take an hour on December 23 at 7 p.m. to watch some of the best Nashville has to offer.  You won\u2019t be in Nashville or Middle Tennessee that day?  That excuse doesn\u2019t count, as the program will be aired nationwide.  So tell your friends and your family, bring some corn for popping, heat up some apple cider and sit down to enjoy some holiday classics. You\u2019ll be supporting the future of the music industry, and your local PBS station, by watching NPT\u2019s <strong><em>Christmas at Belmont<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>National Premiere on PBS and NPT: Wednesday, December 23 at 7 p.m. (CST)<br \/>\nAdditional NPT Local Viewing: Thursday, December 24 at 9 p.m. (CST)<br \/>\nChristmas Day on PBS: Check local listings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re one the home page, click &#8220;read more&#8221; below for photos.
