Today’s Video of the Day is a performance of Gustaf Nordqvis’s ‘Jul, Jul, Strålande Jul’ by Stockholm based male choir Zero8, under the direction of Rasmus Krigström. The performance was filmed live from Vilnius and this video is a preview from LIVE from London Christmas concert ‘Welcome Christmas: Zero8 in Vilnius.’

Zero8 makes their LIVE From London debut with ‘Welcome Christmas’ which includes composers such as Ola Gjeilo, Joanna Marsh, and Danny Elfman as well as traditional Swedish carols. This video also marks St. Lucia day on December 13, a Christian holiday celebrated in Sweden, Norway, and the Swedish-speaking areas of Finland born from stories that were told about how Christianity came to Sweden.
