Various - Christmas Carols, O Come, All (DVD Music)

Though the spirit and warmth of Christmas has been largely overshadowed by non-stop marketing campaigns that inspire a frenzied rush to consumption, there are still simpler delights associated with the holiday. An important immaterial pleasure is that of Christmas carolling, the singing of age-old Christmas carols generation after generation. This fine concert features a beautiful program of traditional hymns, including "God rest you merry, gentlemen" and Hark! The herald angels sing." Filmed in the awe-inspiring and ornate St. Edmundbury Cathedral in Suffolk, England, Cambridge's renowned Choir of Clare College England remind listeners that there is more to Christmas than shopping malls and catalogs.
