Our Take
Our Take
Ah, Yale Schola Cantorum! This prestigious group of vocalists truly delivered a Christmas miracle with their rendition of Heinrich Schutz's The Christmas Story. From the opening notes of "Glorious Christmas" to the triumphant crescendo of "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing," this album is like a musical hug from Santa himself.
The Schola Cantorum's harmonies are so tight, they could give a vice grip a run for its money. Each singer brings their own unique flair to the table, creating a sonic tapestry that is as captivating as it is enchanting. And let's not forget about the instrumental accompaniment - the lute and the viola da gamba add a richness to the sound that will have you reaching for a cup of mulled wine in no time.
But it's not all jingle bells and mistletoe on this album. Schutz's other works, including "Laudate Dominum" and "Salve Regina," showcase the group's versatility and range. Just when you think you've got them pegged as straight-laced choir singers, they hit you with a hauntingly beautiful a cappella piece that will send shivers down your spine.
In conclusion, Yale Schola Cantorum's rendition of Heinrich Schutz's The Christmas Story is a holiday masterpiece that will have you decking the halls and fa-la-la-ing all the way to New Year's. So grab your Santa hat, pour yourself a glass of eggnog, and bask in the musical magic of this delightful album. Cheers to a very merry Schutzmas!
