Both the CD and the DVD will be featured extensively in the PBS December pledge drive, with the program broadcast in stations across the US beginning November 28(th).

Libera is well known to US audiences, having made numerous concert tours and television appearances, including a previous nationwide PBS special in 2007, a tribute to Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys at the Kennedy Center Honors, a Papal Mass at New York's Yankee Stadium before a capacity congregation of 65,000 and a performance on Hour of Power, transmitted via television and internet to millions of viewers around the world.

The group of boys who make up Libera, aged between 7 and 16, has been praised for its unique and deeply-moving sound which is at once both ancient and modern. Their distinctive flowing white robes symbolize the traditional origins of their style, yet their music reaches across the generations to a new mainstream audience. Enchanting audiences wherever they go, they have attracted an enthusiastic fan base in many countries, particularly the US, UK, Japan, the Philippines and South Korea.

Libera is currently the best-selling act of its kind, reflecting the surge of interest in choirs as a result of television shows such as Last Choir Standing and Glee. The group has recorded 10 albums for Warner Classics, with Peace, released in 2010,reaching #1 in the UK, Japanese and Philippine classical charts; in the United States, the release went to #2. Libera's video for Going Home, from their PBS special, has had over two million hits on You Tube.

Tour plans for 2014 and beyond include performances in the United States and Japan.
