Three English Carols

This pleasing menagerie of carols is a treasure trove of memorable themes that sing, "It's Christmas!" A running eighth note pattern gently leads us into the first carol, "In the Bleak Midwinter." The approachable SAB voicing provides a gratifying texture that shimmers with hope and promise. "The Holly and the Ivy" and "Once in Royal David's City" also make an appearance before quietly winding down to a lovely rendering of the final verse of the treasured Rossetti poem.
