The Grammy Award-winning Phoenix Chorale releases its first-ever LIVE recording, a compilation of Christmas music over the last five years of holiday concerts performed in venues across the Phoenix metro-area between 2005 and 2010. Titled “Of A Rose,” the new recording features an array of songs celebrating the holiday season under the direction of Artistic Director Charles Bruffy. The last Christmas recording by the Phoenix Chorale was “A Southwest Christmas” released in 1997.
