Merry Christmas!
Auf seiner neuesten Aufnahme präsentiert der Chor von Westminster Abbey eine ungewöhnliche Auswahl mit weihnachtlicher Chormusik aus England: Neben Werken des 20. Jahrhunderts sind auch Stücke von zeitgenössischen Komponisten zu hören. Abgerundet wird das Programm durch traditionelle Weihnachtslieder wie »Silent night« in attraktiven Neuarrangements.
This new recording from Westminster presents a delightful and unusual selection of music for Christmas from the Abbey Choir. It encompasses all the diverse themes of Christmas which have inspired composers across the ages: light shining in darkness; the tenderness of mother and child; the fulfilment of promise; and the warm merriment of corporate celebration.
An excellent selection of contemporary carols features the composers Jonathan Dove and Bob Chilcott among others. The richness of twentieth-century church music is illustrated in works by Poulenc, Walton, Mathias and Leighton, and by the heartbreakingly lovely piece The little road to Bethlehem by Michael Head. Skilful arrangements of the traditional carols Silent night, In dulci jubilo and I saw three ships, complete this attractive seasonal release.
'The best newly recorded Christmas CD by a country mile … Terrific' (Mail on Sunday)
'The Abbey choir's splendid performance … an ambitious and superbly sung programme, sympathetically framed within the choir's spaciously atmospheric home acoustic' (BBC Music Magazine)
'The Christmas Eve carol service at Westminster Abbey is one of the most warming events in the festive calendar, and this CD captures the atmosphere beautifully … The singing is a constant delight' (Daily Telegraph)
'A must-have addition to any choral collection' (Choir & Organ Magazine)
