Absolutely amazing event!! So much talent and creativity with the songs, and such wonderful people to perform it. Loved the fact that they included the audience in singing along with the carols! It turned into a time of worship to the King who is the reason for the season of Christmas! I would recommend this to anyone and definitely hope I can go again!!
I can't say enough about the amazing talent that was on stage as well as the strong, Christian message proclaimed throughout the show. All of this was overshadowed by a horrific job by whomever was running the soundboard. The music on stage was overwhelmed by heavy percussion and base lines (please explain -- why do you mike a bass drum and emphasize it?). I saw an individual playing a mandolin -- but never heard it. A large choir was present onstage -- I saw their mouths moving but never heard them. I could go on and on about the poor job done by the sound guy. The final encore was probably the worst of example. Much of the evening was distorted and sounded artificial. It was a shame as there was so much talent onstage working hard. The three star review is down from the five it should have been -- solely due to the quality ( or lack therof ) of the sound.
Joy - An Irish Christmas has been the start of our Christmas celebration for the past 2 years. (Last year in Knoxville.) The Gettys and their entourage capture the sheer exuberance of this holiday and its significance. The entire band is incredibly talented and the performance is a lot of fun. We are going to make this a Christmas tradition for our family and attend their closest performance to us.
There just aren't enough superlatives to describe what a wonderful night of music and joy this was. We have been Getty fans for a number of years, using their music in our church and attending their concerts whenever they are within a few hours drive of our home in Asheville, NC. This was absolutely the best! Keith, Kristyn and each of the musicians are so warm and real in their presentations of the music and its message. I hesitate to use the term "performances" because it is all so heartfelt and as I said REAL. If you like Irish music (or even think that you might) you MUST see Keith and Kristyn. An added BIG bonus was the guest appearence of Ricky Skaggs, a true and pure "Bluegrass" musician.
Spectacular evening! Talented, warm and well done. The Getty's and their gang are wonderful. A perfect way to celebrate Christmas and to rejoice in our savior's birth. Special performance.
Show was awesome. We thoroughly enjoyed the evening! Highly recommend to all!!
What a WONDERFUL night celebrating the birth of Jesus with Keith and Kristyn Getty and their band. The music was AMAZING. I loved the dancing, all the different instruments used, and all the singers. They were FANTASTIC! This concert GLORIFIED Jesus Christ, which is what Christmas is all about. I pray that the Getty's will be here again next year.
What an outstanding performance! Very inspirational. The musicians were the greatest.
I enjoy the show very much. I would recommend the Getty's to everyone
The Keith & Kristyn Getty concert was awesome! I was really needing something to uplift my sagging spirit this Christmas season, and this concert did just that! This year is the first anniversary of my husband of 30 years' death, which occured 12/30/14. I've lost both of my parents, and now my 54 year old husband, to death in the month of December, plus our wedding anniversary would've been on 12/28/15. So, I was not looking forward to this Christmas season at all. But, I decided to invite member's of my Grief Recovery group with me to watch the Getty's Irish Christmas concert last Thursday night, and we all were so blessed by it! The Getty's truely "GET IT"!...Christmas is all about Jesus, and that God so loved us that He gave us His Son to die in our place. The music was extraordinary! The message of the music....was divinely inspired and healing for me. I'm glad i went!
This show was beautiful and upbeat, even through the carol service. I would recommend to anyone interested in Irish music or religious Christmas events. Great show!
I labeled this my best concert of the year on Facebook. From the first moment this polished group of world class musicians exploded into joyful celebration. That certainly fits with Christmas as I see it. I just love the Gettys and what they are producing, but I probably would not have a chance to see them except in a public venue. This was a perfect opportunity, thanks to their willingness to take a Christmas show on the road and lace it with top notch Irish music and culture. Of course, the whole thing is dominated by the richness of their faith in God and the uncommon beauty of their expression of it. That's something we appreciated the most!
I have loved Keith & Kriistyn Getty's music for about a year and a half. I traveled from Pensacola, FL to see their Christmas concert in Montgomery. They sing and write excellent Christian music. Their background is Irish, so their music reflects this Celtic feel. Their band that travels with them are very talented and full of life and a love for the music. Most of all, they love & believe in the messages of their music!
The concert was absolutely wonderful. It really put you in the right mind for Christmas. Our Lords birth.
I enjoyed the concert, but, I felt there was more "band" than I had expected, and a lot of dancing and fiddle playing, which was awesome, but I felt like Keith & Kristyn Getty were not the "show." They were only part of the show. There was also a choir. Other than "In Christ Alone" which was sung by the Gettys, the choir and the congregation, there was none of the familiar Getty songs which we've come to love. The hymns/carols were sung by all. Kristyn was wonderful with such a smooth beautiful voice, but there was not enough of that. The set was amazing. The Christian message was powerful. The concert lasted 2 1/2 hours, with a 20 minute intermission.
This was an excellent Christian concert. Ricky Skaggs was a delightful surprise.
Great night of worship and upbeat Irish music and dancing. We were surprised by the guest appearance of Ricky Skaggs. Jesus Christ was lifted up, and the songs were just like a scripture primer. Would like to see them anytime I can, will buy and play their music. Runa was great, and the Rend Collective got us jumping.
The Gettys were great! Also really enjoyed being introduced to Rend Collective. The sound was not as good as the Christmas Concert at the Schermerhorn. Seemed like the technicians never really got it dialed in. Music was excellent though.
This presentation of Christian music was very impressive and my date and I were moved by the performances. They were great.
Keith & Kristyn Getty are inspired by God to write the words, put it to music and perform it in a way to lead people to worship God. What a great time we had singing with them and their friends. I look forward to hearing more from Rune. As always, it is a delight to see , Ricky Skaggs - almost like seeing Bill Monroe! The other group that had previously toured with Third Day was a little bit crazy for my taste, especially when one of the guys told everybody to jump up and down....I wondered if the old Ryman would hold the balcony up under the pressure... was relieved when it didn't come crashing down on us. The talent though, was excellent, great fiddle players, guitarist, vocalist, squeeze box, irish bagpipe, drums, and some strange skinny bull bass .... and they were played by accomplished musicians! My money was well spent. Thank you for a great show.
