Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Fine Arrangement Of Christmas Songs!
This album really has the best arrangement of orchestra and chorale performed Christmas music! A pleasure to listen to!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - For the Love of Carols
This collection of carols by R. Shaw one of the best I have had the pleasure of experiencing. It is truely a joy.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - WOW
Wow--I got goosebumps all the way through this CD. This is an absolutely beautiful recording of timeless Christmas music. Well worth the money.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Traditional Christmas Music
If you love traditional Christmas music, done in traditional style (i.e., no rock or jazz influence), this CD is for you. The Robert Shaw Chorale, the "gold standard" of quality choral music, sings much loved carols, with some lesser-known pieces as well. Some are a cappella; some include a full orchestral accompaniment. My favorites on this CD are "We Three Kings," "Bring a Torch, Jeannette Isabella," and "I Saw Three Ships."



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The quintessential Christmas recording
This recording seems to elicit universal and heartfelt praise. Who am I to dispute that? The performance is terrific, just as described by the other Amazon reviewers, no doubt about it.

However, I do have one bone to pick with this recording. There just isn't enough of it. With material as good as this, that is a real loss!
