To celebrate the holiday season, BU Today recently recorded four groups on campus known for performing spiritual music or music relating to their heritage. We asked students in the groups to talk about the ways music enhances their lives and expresses their faith.

Today’s video features the music of Jewish a cappella group Kol Echad.

Tomorrow, you’ll hear the music of  Mustard Seed, a Christian a cappella group. And up on Thursday will be the Marsh Chapel Choir, rehearsing for Marsh Chapel’s 39th annual University Service of Lessons and Carols.
