'Twas The Night Before Christmas' ... Voiced By 31 Pros For Charity December 6, 2011 (VOXtra) - Here's something children can enjoy - twice. You will, too. Led by popular voice talent Joe Cipriano, 31 of the country's top voice over pros recently voiced a special version of 'Twas The Night Before Christmas as a way to raise money for children at the Children's Hospital UCLA. Under the name Primetime Voices for Children, "the group gathered in studios to donate their time and talent," Cipriano explains. The recording will be released this week and all sales and donations to Voices For Children will benefit Mattel Children’s Hospital UCLA. Later this month, "The entire cast will assemble at the hospital for a live performance and donation," adds Prime Time voicer Beau Weaver. DONATE AND HEAR You'll love the enchanting recording.

"We felt there was an opportunity to offer up new and unique holiday content for radio programmers and music directors to freshen up their playlists of holiday classics, and do some good for children," Cipriano explains. THE PRIMETIME VOICES The cast of this stirring recording is a Who's Who of the voice over world:
Cipriano produced the project and brought in John Masecar for the sound design of the classic poem. Steve Bravin and his team at Killer Tracks, courtesy of Universal Music Group, donated the music free of licensing fees to the cause, Cipriano adds. The track can also be purchased on CDBaby,com, Amazon and iTunes. Your Daily Resource For Voice-Over Success

Indeed, they all do a great job with this recording. My use of the word "top" in this article didn't mean to imply that there are ONLY 31 top voice talents! These are "31 OF the country's top voice over pros." Determining the best-of-the-best wouldn't be a task I'd look forward to.
