Comfort and Joy

BBR is thrilled to present our latest CD, Comfort and Joy. It’s been a project two years in the making, as we’ve selected our favorite holiday repertoire from the past few seasons and recorded them at WGBH’s fabulous Fraser Performance Studio. To listen to a preview, check out clips from the CD on our shopping page. To order online, add the CD to your cart to pay via PayPal. To pay by check or money order, download our order form. We hope that listening to Comfort and Joy becomes part of your holiday tradition this year and for years to come!
