The sounds of Christmas
Here are two of my favorite choral groups, the King's College Choir of Cambridge University in England led by Stephen Cleobury and the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra Chorus led by the late Robert Shaw, singing some of the great music of Christmas in an excellent fashion:
Sussex Carol (1:32)
Ding Dong! Merrily On High! (2:03)
Coventry Carol (2:56)
O Tannenbaum (2:04)
Carol of the Bells (1:21)
Angels We Have Heard On High (2:06)
In the Bleak Midwinter (3:42)
O Come All Ye Faithful (4:09)
Infant Holy, Infant Lowly (2:06)
Jesus Christ The Apple Tree (2:47)
Lo, How a Rose E’er Blooming (1:06)
Gloria in Excelsis Deo! (2:33)
And from my house to yours, a very merry Christmas!
