On Saturday, December 14, 2013 Berklee students and Boston musicians furnished the MFA's Shapiro Family Courtyard with song, featuring soloist Mark Joseph & a full choir and string section. The nostalgic Christmas tune rang through the MFA amongst hundreds of unsuspecting onlookers and brought bustling and chatting crowds to silence in a bid to capture the essence of the holidays.

Special Thanks to the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and Josh Knowles
Every holiday I watch this video. And every time, without fail it gives me the chills and I find myself welling up with emotion. I simply can’t get enough of his voice. This entire performance leaves me feeling…🥹❤
Exactly Amy- I listen to this as a reminder of the awe and joy of Christmas.
Same
Same. Possibly the most beautiful musical arrangement I’ve ever heard.
Same! Here every Christmas to hear this angelic song.
Same
I try to share it with everyone
As I've done every year since this video was first published, it is the first Christmas song I watched. It's become a tradition I plan to continue indefinitely as it is, without exception, the most beautiful rendition of this song I've heard over my 72 years! Outstanding...simply outstanding.
This has got to be one of the best renditions of 'O Holy Night' I have ever heard. I want this guy to come live in my house and sing to me every day! #FavoriteChristmasSongEver
If not the best❤❤❤❤❤❤
we were there. we were talking with friends just outside the cafe and totally taken by surprise when we heard the music. It was an absolutely sublime musical experience.
Way cool, Peter.
Where was this? The music is exceptional especially if they are just students
It was at the Museum of Fine Arts , Boston. I imagine they were Berklee and/ or NE Conservatory students
I understand this comment is 8 years old but I was also there. In the beginning shots you see the kid perk up on his chair with the white button down. That was me. 18 years old now and I'll watch this video every year. It was absolutely bewildering
It's things like this that remind me that humanity still has a chance. We just have learn to love one another. Merry Christmas everyone!
Brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for bringing the spirit of Christmas to the MFA and the interwebs. Beautiful. Just beautiful.
Every year, I return to this video. It's so beautiful.
Best rendition of have ever heard.
this is the creativity that makes America great - not the guns or the imperialism or the hate: I am not American, but when I see something like this I, too, love America
Wow... sniff... I wasn't even in the Christmas spirit until that... sniff. Incredible! And, the soloist has a voice I want to hear more of! Fantastic... wiping tears.
As I've done since the time this video first appeared on RUclips, I've made it the first Christmas song that I listen to/watch each year. I don't think I've ever heard a more compelling and beautiful rendition of O Holy Night than that done here. It always has the same effect on me....brings tears of joy to my eyes. Beautiful...just beautiful.
Alan Smith, your sweet communication with Ro Rowan is also an incalculable gift.
It's December 24th 2020 and I'm in Guadalajara Mexico with tears running down my face. Peace on Earth and good will toward men.
Peace Buddy!
To the Berklee students in Boston: My heart responds with joy and lightness. Thank you very much for your sharing your lovely gift with us this holiday season.
I watch this video every single year and it makes me cry every time. So much grace...
Something special was captured in this... it was beautiful and moves your soul.
I heard the voice(s) of angels...what beautiful gifts of God's grace... deepest thanks...
Most beautiful of all the " 'O holy night" songs I have heard. The singer's voice is fantastic! He is a Star or will be one.
Love this video again❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Boston, you're my home! This is stunningly beautiful.
This young man and the other students need to perform on the Ellen Show. They'd bring down the house. Beautiful...just beautiful.
THe soloist is Mark Joseph. I hope he has a brilliant career. And what a fine chorale and orchestra! I love this.
You can not say your not in the Christmas spirit until he sings. Chills, tears when he sings. Beautiful voice!!! Someone sign him asap
Moved me past tears....cried my head off. I am now a life long fan of Mark Joseph. INCREDIBLE!!!!
Heaven on earth for a few precious moments. Thank you all.
christmas berklee music student flash mob at boston's museum of fine arts...this is beautiful. gave me chills.
I think this is the first time in my life I've had the chills for more than 5 minutes...
These are so much better than the typical flash mobs. These are the kind of performances you pay a lot of money to see. Truly brilliant.
Amen! Truly divine the night when Christ was born. Thank you for reminding the world the true meaning of Christmas!
BEAUTIFUL! Made me cry happy tears. Thank you. God bless you.
+anativeoftexas Same here
Besides Jesus, I believe one of the Greatest Gifts God Gave Man, was MUSIC ! It touches the hearts, of so many. It can bring back memories of old, and it can lighten a somber gathering. Music touches everyone, no mater what. In this choral setting how can you not be touched by the intricate harmonies, and the words that were written. We are so often humbled by the majesty of such a beautiful performance.... We are BLESSED .. VERY BLESSED.. to be given a gift like this..
Yup, I still watch this every Christmas season and it gets me every time 😊
so berührend - unglaublich was Musik alles kann - tropft ungefiltert direkt ins Herz. Halleluja.
There’s your American idol right there folks. Beautiful voice. No auto tune. God has blessed this young man.
I love this arrangement... it sounds like the fluttering of angels around the manger. Mr. Joseph's singing puts Christ back in our hearts where He belongs. Thank you.
I listen to this version and this version only of O' Holy Night every time Christmas rolls around ever since my Freshmen Spanish teacher Ms. Larivee showed it to my class the day before Christmas break. It honestly breaks all the sadness in life and shows me what the true meaning of joy is all about, brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to it so thank you Berkeley school of music for this magnificent production.
Mark Joseph: You are a star!!!!! Unbelievable voice!!!!!
I went to Berklee 20 yrs ago. So proud of my alma mater for this. Well done, people. Wonderful.
Sophisticated sense of music
{love love love this!} This has become my new favorite arrangement of the tune. Kudos to the Berklee crew & musicians and for the MFA to allow this to be staged in their space.
Just more proof to me that beautiful music like this is truly a gift from God. I feel so blessed! Thanks Berklee students and Boston musicians!
Such a beautiful performance.. It makes me tears up with joy.. Jesus bless you all..!!!
Bravo,Bravo, restores my faith in American youth, thank you all for your share.
Have you ever something so clear, so pure, so perfect that the beauty of it makes you weep? The first cry of a newborn, the perfect pitch of a young man singing his heart out.
These are just a couple of things that bring tears to my eyes.
Thank you.
wow, his voice is amazing, I have goosebumps all over. :)
I am with P Ellyn- I have listened to this for three years at Christmas season and cry every single time. It is moving and gorgeous. I wish I had been at the MFA for this.
Tears streaming down my face, every time I Listen.
He has the most beautiful voice--So clear and confident! Very well done, everyone.
Amazing! Amazing! Amazing! I can't think of anything else until I stop crying.
Loved it....soloist Mark Joseph was awesome.
DOWNLOADED! Yes! I have forwarded it to dozens of people and return to it regularly for three years now. The production, arrangement, performance and lead voice are all beyond amazing...almost inspired. I cry EVERY SINGLE TIME I hear it. That alone amazes me. Wow! Glad I finally figured out how to download it. It will be played in my family for as long as I live....timeless.
Found this in 2013, now playing this for my 18 month old and she smiles every time the note goes high. Like watching a little angel listen to another angel sing. Purchased this, thank you for such beautiful art.
I was there! Me & my Sis were sitting in the cafe having lunch when they all wandered out. It was an incredibly beautiful thing to hear in person. These kids are SO talented it's crazy.
The 51 people who doesnt like this must not be in the holiday spirit this is beautiful.....
This video has become part of my holiday tradition. Please never take it down.
same here listen every Christmas
WOW!!! Just proves that JESUS is the reason for the season!
Here once again... Listening to how beautiful this is...
Who gives this a thumbs down...really?...this was fantastic...great work!
The lead singer's voice...what a gift. Loved it.
Beautiful! This guy can sing! No autotune, better than Hollywood.
How marvelous. They brought some soul to that gray souless space. If this happened everyday I'd eat there more.
Mark you nailed this song , I listen to it every morning !
O holy night is my all time favorite Christmas song. This was absolutely beautiful.
So beautiful to see young people adding to the joys of the holiday season. Thanks for posting this video!
amazing. Thank you Berklee Students for sharing the true meaning of Christmas. Sharing and giving of your wonderful talents is a precious gift and brings the true spirt of Christmas to our hearts.
One of the most beautiful renditions of my favorite Christmas carol. Stunning.
I can't stop crying everytime I watch this. Wow....just wow.
wow, thanks. this was a 3-hanky performance. and so wonderful to see the incredible black, brown, tan, beige, and white crew from Berkley...
I'm a VERY PROUD Berklee Alumni !!!! Stunning Video !!!!
Un énorme BRAVO à tous les musiciens et chanteurs. Cette interprétations est remplie de sentiments tellement beaux et c'est une des meilleures, peut-être la meilleure que j'ai eu l'occasion d'entendre. Merci pour ces doux moments d'émotions.
Overwhelmed! They showed this in church today and I had to come home and search for it. The service was about 'Awe', and this definitely made me awestruck!
Truly inspirational.....Thank you to each and every one who participated. They brought tears to my eyes.
And who are the 61 (so far) dislikers? How can you not be moved by the spirit so in evidence here. How can you not be moved by the beauty and power of these remarkable musicians. The world needs so much of this kind of joy. Never moreso than now. I hope the dislikers can find their own happiness. If not here, though, I don't know where. I will pray for you, dislikers of God's great gift of music, perfectly presented. 12/24/13
Thank you for keeping this video active. I enjoyed it very much including the Spiritual tingle that came with it. 🙂 (Chase)
Beautiful voice. Wonderful gift to all those who got to hear this.
Wow
Thank you to all who performed
Wow
What beauty!
Holy Wow. HE NAILED IT. Great performance by all!
This made me happy! So beautiful. Beautiful place and wonderful music by some talented people!!!
So beautiful. The weary world rejoices.
i've listened to this over 20 times. and it still makes me feel teary eyed.
Gives me the chills - in a good way. What an astounding performance. Thanks to all who participated!
Perfection from start to finish. I heard an angel sing. Thank you!
That young man can sing! Everyone sounded amazing
So beautiful. I miss Boston So much. Merry Christmas from West Virginia to all of you
Great music, great crowd, good showing from the people of Boston. Remember those who can't come home. Military and Aid workers, or whatever. Peace on Earth, Goodwill towards Men.
An inspirational video. The simplicity and beauty of this performance shows the true spirit and meaning of the Christmas holiday #bostonstrong
This is a beautiful video I watch it every December. This young man did an incredible performance 😢😢😢😢
Flash Mob of Real Musicians is what this should be called!
They all played perfectly, without seeking extra points of attention or trying to stand out.
This singer... Unbelievable how this song lends itself to overextend and break, yet this man stays pitch perfect, instead of crying for attention, he draws people in with his timid way of singing for which this song was meant.
This is a rare and outstanding performance!
Brought tears to my Boy friends eyes....really!
I've loved this since the first time I viewed it and here it is July 4th and I'm still revisiting this video. It is so beautiful and always brings me such joy! Thank you...again.
Warm rushes through my body as tears come down my cheeks. My favorite Christmas song done so unbelievably fine and full of spirit.
Thanks for this beautiful moment from Belgium !
That man's voice is beautiful!!!
I love this hymn and this performance of it. I also love the diversity of the artists and the lovely reception that those present gave them. Merry Christmas all!
This is so beautiful. It made me cry. Thank you for putting this on here. Oh Holy Night. Christmas Eve 2013 in my bed in tears
Beautiful, Gorgeous and every other word imaginable right now. Simply amazing.
Beautiful! This song always made me cry..
LOVE this young man's voice !!!
One of the best and most calming renditions of this beautiful Christmas classic Ive heard in quite a while !! Love it !!
This young man has a beautiful voice.
Beautiful and moving. Thank you, I needed that right now.
This was wonderful. I love flash mobs. We need to keep the arts, especially music alive in schools and everywhere.
CHRISTMAS - NEVER > Xmas - Excellent performance
