WATCH: GENTRI returns to Idaho with Christmas concerts in Rexburg and Boise
Published at | Updated at
REXBURG — A BYU-Idaho Christmas is returning Saturday after a two-year hiatus and the popular group GENTRI will be special guests at the annual production.
Short for “The Gentlemen Trio,” GENTRI are pioneers of a signature sound best-described as “Cinematic Pop.” Encompassed by epic orchestrations and dynamic three-part harmonies, their music includes popular classics, current hits, and Broadway favorites, as well as their original inspiring compositions.
The group will join students in the College of Performing and Visual Arts at the performance on Saturday, Dec. 3 at 7:30 p.m. in the BYU-Idaho Center.
“We’ve been working for months to make it to be what story we want to tell, the feeling we want to give, and the celebration of Christ and Christmas for this season,” said BYU-Idaho Christmas Production Stage Manager Alex Jeppson.
The theme of this year’s performance is “Together Again at Christmas.”
“We want to remember that Christmas is about gathering and remembering our Savior,” Jeppson said. “Our songs, narrations, lighting, and scenic design elements have all come from that theme.”
GENTRI’s Rexburg stop comes after the group has concerts in Boise Tuesday and Wednesday nights. Tickets can be purchased here.
