This year's performance of "Christmas at Belmont" promises an array of traditional carols, classical masterworks and seasonal favorites in addition to selections from Belmont alumnus Josh Turner's new Christmas album. Produced by Nashville Public Television (NPT), "Christmas at Belmont" was taped live for the first time in the newly opened Fisher Center for the Performing Arts on the University's campus. "Christmas at Belmont" is underwritten in part by presenting sponsor Tyson Foods.
