A mix of the sublime traditional Christmas music from one of the finest singers in the world. O Holy Night is exquisite, Hark The Herald and Adeste Fideles are superb, and everything else is just wonderful. The perfect Christmas CD for listening to or for background music while opening presents and visiting with friends. November 16, 2008

It's a treat to play year after year December after December. I love the order of the songs, the lavish orchestral acompaniment, and the boy choir supporting Jessye Norman's astonishing voice. A beautifully produced CD, by far my favorite Christmas album. December 1, 2006

rating: 5 QuoteIt will become part of your XmasQuote
It's a reference. Start your Christmas season with this CD.
Jessye is perfect as always.
The harmonization is another pearl in this work. The balance between her voice and the boy's choir completes the ambience.
Pay special attention to "See Amid the Winter's Snow" December 4, 2005

This album is shockingly beautiful. Norman's voice is amazing. The first track alone brings tears to my eyes. This is one of my favourite Christmas albums of all time. If you like Jeysse Norman and you like beautiful, sacred Christmas music, then you should also check out Jeysse Norman At Notra Dame. December 4, 2005

rating: 5 QuoteIt doesn't get any better than this.Quote
This is one of the most perfectly beautiful recordings of any kind in existence. The pure glory of Jessye's voice is enhanced by the moving, glowing arrangements and thrilling accompanying performances. You will not find a better Christmas album, this is a true work of love and art in the spiritual realm. While it fills your ears with resplendant sound it fills your heart with love and hope.
