You won't want to miss this concert


I am so excited for this concert! All of us as artists are also producing this concert so it has taken a tremendous amount of hard work to put it together. But because of this, I think it will be awesome. I love Debbie's sweet high voice and power ballads! Freddie has an amazing tenor voice, and Three2U are not only inspirational soloists, but as a group, they have a synergisticc power and blend that is beyond smooth.
Please make sure that you get your tickets early because they are selling faster than any concert I have produced before.This is a great Christian Inspirational concert that you can feel comfortable bringing your friends to. We will be having multimedia and live orchestra as well as fabulous singing...so come and say hello. I would love to say hello to you and sign a CD if you want.
Love,
Michele

Christmas Eve Concert

Christmas Eve was busy for the Baer family this year as we performed at the AZ LDS Temple Lights again. Instead of cooking goodies and then caroling to a few friends on that special evening, we had the opportunity to sing to several hundred folks in the chilly night air on one of the most sacred nights of the year. When it was all done, the night turned out magical with many friends and extended family there to hug afterwards. But I must say that practicing harmonies, finding tux bowties, matching dresses, securing accompanists and such made for a stressful week up til the big day. LtoR is our family- Tyler, Corey, Michele, Sterling, Brian and Marisa. We also had Sarah Thaxton singing with us as an extra Soprano to help balance with all the men's voices. She was wonderful.
Brian sang "Little Drummer Boy" with his guitar and did a smooth job.

Then Tyler Sang "O Holy Night" with a Josh Groban arrangement background and sounded awesome. We heard many great comments afterwards about their songs.













I had the chance to sing "Gesu Bambino", one of my favorite Christmas Solos and also shared the popular song, "Merry Christmas Darling"

I think the best part was watching my children and husband enjoy performing for others and having the audience join with us on the last verse of Silent Night. It was sweet and stirring. Special Thanks to Sharon Overall for playing the piano for us and 2nd cousin Morgan Wood for jumping in at the last minute with violin!

CD DISCOUNT SPECIAL- 2 CD's FOR $25

After an amazing lineup of fall performances at 3 Book of Mormon Conventions, I have been busy with around 2 performances a week since then. Christmas concerts and musical numbers are really a joy to do.
Just this week I sang for an hour at the downtown Mesa AZ post office for the customers waiting in line to mail packages. I sang mostly Amy Grant or Karen Carpenter Christmas tunes and of course some old favorites like "White Christmas", but also featured a few of the songs from my CDs. How fun it is to see hearts soften and faces brighten up as they listen to music with the spirit of Christ. Most refreshing is to notice how all children respond with a ready smile and love in their eyes when they see me singing.
By the way, if anyone is interested in getting a discount on my CD's, just go to my website and you will see a special with a phone number to call. They make great gifts for friends or visiting teachees. www.MicheleBaer.com

BOOK OF MORMON EVIDENCES CONFERENCE


It has been an exciting and informational experience to sing at the two recent Book of Mormon Evidences conferences with Rod Meldrum, Bruce Porter, Wayne May and Kieth Merrill. I have enjoyed meeting some great folks and hearing compelling evidence that quite possibly the events of the Book of Mormon took place in the North American Continental area. I hope that if you have any curiosity, you will visit the website, http://www.bookofmormonevidence.org/ and read for yourself the scriptural, textual, archaelogical and dna evidences that have come forth.

NATIONAL ANTHEM AUDITION






Amazingly enough, I had the chance to be at Dodger Stadium on Mormon night after making the top 6 finalists out of over 500 auditions. My audition video is the link here, but the pictures show that it was indeed an honor to be there with Elder Ballard and enjoy the night. I am glad Shea Owens was able to sing the anthem, as he did the most awesome job and is so deserving of the opportunity!

FLAGSTAFF 5 STAKE YOUTH CONFERENCE



What a fabulous experience! I had the privilege of doing a musical presentation for the kids from Northern AZ just before Sis Ann M. Dibb spoke. I sang 6 songs and shared my testimony with the most amazing kids. There was a great outpouring of the spirit and we were all uplifted together. Sister Dibb shared a great message and stories about her father, Pres. Thomas S. Monson. What a special evening. In the picture are LtoR-Sis Petersen, Sis Dibb, Me and Sis Becky Oldroyd.
