Our Take

In a world filled with tired renditions of classic Christmas tunes, St Chads Cathedral Choir, under the direction of David Saint and Nigel Morris, deliver an album that is a true breath of fresh air. "Music for Christmas" is a delightful mix of traditional carols and lesser-known gems, all performed with a charming and quirky twist that is sure to put a smile on your face.

From the opening track, "O Holy Night," the choir showcases their impressive vocal range and versatility. The harmonies are tight, the dynamics are spot on, and the overall production is top-notch. It's clear that these musicians are not just going through the motions - they are fully immersed in the music and it shines through in every note.

Standout tracks include the hauntingly beautiful "In the Bleak Midwinter" and the lively and infectious "Ding Dong Merrily on High." The arrangements are clever and imaginative, breathing new life into these timeless classics. And let's not forget about the organ accompaniment, which adds a rich and majestic backdrop to the already exquisite vocals.

Overall, "Music for Christmas" is a must-have for anyone looking to get into the holiday spirit. It's joyous, playful, and utterly enchanting from start to finish. So grab a mug of mulled wine, cozy up by the fire, and let the St Chads Cathedral Choir serenade you into a merry and bright Christmas season. Cheers!
