In lieu of a real-live concert, Patch has compiled YouTube videos of the 12-year-old singing holiday songs.
Merry Christmas! For the second year in a row, Patch figured the best gift we could give you on Christmas Day would be a concert of Christmas songs by Jackie Evancho of Pine-Richland. We also figured she's a little busy today being a 12-year-old enjoying the holiday with her family.

"Jingle Bell, Jingle Bell, Jingle Bell Rock!" That's one of the songs prodigy Shailen Abram sang when he visited West Penn Hospital for a holiday party in early December and raised awareness for families of premature infants.

Completely blind in his left eye and with limited vision in his right, Shailen went home to an uncertain future. But before he was even a year old, Shailen’s mother saw he had a precocious musical talent.

It was the first encounter that I had with this immensely talented young singer. Joe Merkt Thampsons Station, TN   more ›
