Our Take

Tom Winpenny's La Nativite Du Seigneur is like a Christmas party where everyone turns up in Santa hats, only to realize they forgot to bring the mince pies. This album is a strange mix of traditional carols and avant-garde experimentation, with Winpenny weaving in and out of familiar melodies like a tipsy uncle at a family gathering.

At times, the album feels like a chaotic whirlwind of sound, with Winpenny's frenetic organ playing taking center stage. The dissonance and unpredictability of tracks like "O Magnum Mysterium" will either leave you scratching your head in confusion or reaching for the mulled wine.

But amidst the chaos, there are moments of pure beauty. "In Dulci Jubilo" features delicate harmonies and shimmering textures that transport you to a snowy winter wonderland, while "Une Vierge Pucelle" showcases Winpenny's ability to take a familiar tune and make it feel fresh and exciting.

Overall, La Nativite Du Seigneur is a mixed bag, with moments of brilliance shining through the cacophony. Whether you're a hardcore organ music aficionado or just looking for a unique holiday soundtrack, Tom Winpenny's latest offering is sure to leave you feeling merry and bright. Just don't forget the mince pies.
