Christmas Carols
by John Rutter
For choral musicians, Christmas is an especially joyous time, as it is filled with the warmth of singing beloved carols and sacred works that celebrate the spirit of the season. That shared experience of harmonising in festive concerts creates a profound sense of community and uplift.
Christmas is made even more special by John Rutter, one of the world’s most popular choral composers, whose famous arrangements of traditional carols and original Christmas pieces have become cherished holiday favourites.
“I have always enjoyed carols ever since I first sang them as a member of my school choir,” Rutter relates, “and it was not long before I began to write carols of my own.” Full of joy and tenderness, John Rutter's carols illuminate and celebrate the Christmas story in works of great imagination and variety.
