"Carols of the Nativity" is a set of treasured carol texts featured in these original new contemporary settings by composer Richard Hynson. Each carol has its own distinctive charm and together they create a profoundly beautiful effect. Includes: "Angels We Have Heard on High," "Infant Holy, Infant Lowly," "It Came Upon the Midnight Clear." The powerful setting of the cherished Christmas, "O Holy Night'" standard is ideal for mass finale or processional use. Builds to a dramatic conclusion! "Masters In The Hall" is presented in an exceptional a cappella setting which emphasizes the beauty of this traditional French carol. The distinctive choral artistry of conductor Dale Warland is clearly evident in this expressive choral version of "Of The Father's Love Begotten." The simplicity of the melody and the compelling majesty of the text are captured in an a cappella setting "Silent Night." Also included in this package is an arrangement of Britten's "The Holly And The Ivy". |
