Echoes of Christmas

Echoes of Christmas

When they sing, you can almost smell the pine. The Dale Warland Singers ceased operations almost 20 years ago and the longer they are gone, the more they are missed — especially by those for whom it just wasn’t the holiday season without the group’s Echoes of Christmas concerts. It was holiday choral singing at its best.

Fortunately, many of those performances were recorded. Throw another log on the fire and revel in the spirit of Christmas past, Dale Warland style. Join host Steve Staruch and Warland himself for an Echoes of Christmas Encore!
