This story is part of a web series called Music that Matters with CBC Yukon s Airplay host Dave White. Dave sits down with Yukoners to talk about five pieces of music that inspire them.
Barry Kitchen is something of a rarity in the city of Whitehorse.
He s a piano tuner. I know of someone else that actually took the same course I did that can tune pianos, but he doesn t do it for a living, he said. Of all the jobs I do, tuning pianos is my favourite.
Silent Night phát xuất từ một nhà thờ khiêm tốn ở vùng quê nước Áo đến
The Wexford Carol của vùng đồi núi hiểm trở Ireland thế kỷ 12, dây là các thánh ca có đã lâu đời, nhưng ngày nay ta vẫn nghe thường xuyên trong mùa Giáng Sinh tại bất kỳ quốc gia nào trên thế giới, vì chúng đã thành những thánh ca phổ thông nhất, bên trong và bên ngoài nhà thờ, khắp nơi.
The world-famous Carols from King s service was saved at the last minute after The Kings Singers stepped in when two Choral Scholars tested positive for coronavirus.
Fourteen adult Choral Scholars usually join the 16 boy choristers to sing at the historic service, which has been televised by the BBC for more than 60 years.
But two Choral Scholars from the same household tested positive for coronavirus last week, meaning some of the lower voice section of the choir had to go into voluntary isolation - putting the service in jeopardy.
Thankfully, the six members of The Kings Singers - a group founded just over 50 years ago by members of King s College Choir - came to the rescue with just 48-hours-notice and the BBC recording was able to go ahead as planned.

Itzhak Perlman’s Hanukkah Radio Party
Itzhak Perlman invites you to his Chanukah Radio Party. Join the superstar violinist as he tells the story of the Jewish festival of lights, and shares his favorite recordings for the holiday – some serious, some silly. This engaging one-hour special includes numbers from Itzhak Perlman’s radio-addicted childhood in Israel; evocative songs in Yiddish and Ladino; classical music that revolves around the Maccabee heroes of the story; and Chanukah gems by American folk singers. The master storyteller also regales you with jokes and memories, plus tales of three classic Chanukah symbols: the menorah, the latke, and, of course, the dreidel. A good time for the whole family, at Itzhak Perlman’s Chanukah Radio Party!
