McRae; a lively arrangement of “I Saw Three Ships” arranged by Craig Curry featuring handbells; “Hazrat Bibi Mariam,” a song for peace incorporating movement and percussion; “After the Storm” by Martha Burford with guest puppeteers and musicians from the Boxerwood Spectacle; “Ding, Dong! Merrily on High,” the traditional French carol arranged by Ken Berg; and “All On a Silent Night,” a lovely partner song between the traditional German carol “Silent Night” and an original composed melody by Becki Slagle Mayo.
