SALT LAKE CITY, Utah (Good Things Utah) – It’s time to get your tickets for an incredible holiday performance from Utah’s own Jenny Oaks Baker. The Grammy-nominated and Billboard charting violinist is back on the show with a sneak peek of her Joy to the World! A Sacred Celebration musical production.

Baker tells us that the production will blend artistry with the true meaning of the season, the birth of Jesus Christ. The tour will visit 13 cities in Colorado, Texas, Utah, Idaho, Florida, Virginia and California. Baker will be joined by her children, (who she says she loves working with now that she’s an empty nester) the Family Four, along with internationally celebrated mezzo-soprano Angela Brower, and acclaimed baritone and narrator Preston Yates.

The production also features a script written by New York Times bestselling author Jason Wright, known for his novel “Christmas Jars.” The script celebrates Christ’s birth through songs and storytelling, encouraging crowds to become bolder witnesses of Jesus Christ.

Baker says it’s a tradition for so many Utah families, and it will feel comforting but also “impactful and exciting and new” this year. For tickets, full tour information and performer biographies please visit www.JennyOaksBaker.com
