| |  | The True Meaning Of Christmas |  |
A beautiful recording of sacred and spiritual Christmas music by highly talented and gifted singers and musicians. If you love choral music and celebrate "Christ" at Christmastime, then St. Olaf is for you. A wonderful reminder of the reason for the season.
January 18, 2007As a choir director, I am constantly looking for pieces to add to our library, and for excellent examples of choral work. St. Olaf's choir recordings never fail to deliver on both those points. From the rhythmic beauty of Andre Thomas's African Noel, to the classic Candlelight Carol of John Rutter, and the wondrous harmony of Lo How A Rose E'er Blooming, listeners will enjoy the rich warm tones of one of the finest choirs on earth.
This recording features the five choirs and orchestra of St. Olaf's, and this is a recording to be played over and over and over again. April 25, 2002
| | | a beautiful Christmas experience | |
Featuring the five choirs from St. Olaf College and the spectacular college orchestra, this recording brings all that Christmas means in music and word. The singing is unparalleled in the college choir world, and the orchestra is phenomenal. What is particularly moving, however, is the relationship between texts -- piece to piece, hymn to hymn. The entire program weaves a thoughtful, deliberate tale of hope and love. This is truly a spiritual recording in every sense. Enjoy!
