Noel; A Worldwide Christmas Celebration

Wonderful renditions of non-traditional Christmas music from Europe and other parts of the world. I had this CD several years ago, but couldn't find it, but it was so good I didn't mind having a second copy.

Wonderful. Could listen to it all year long.

Beautiful recording!

NOEL: A WORLDWIDE CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION(Snowflakes on cover surround a picture of the Mormon Choir and Pipes.)This is truly the BEST MORMON TABERNACLE CHOIR CD I have ever heard, and I have at least 12 of them.It is also in my TOP FIVE ALL TIME FAVORITE CHRISTMAS CDs.NOEL is truly unique and very well produced, with minimal organ at times, minimal orchestra at other times, and the most sweet and charming medieval instruments at other times. It also sounds fantastic. And it’s OVER AN HOUR LONG. I never get tired of this CD. In fact, I even play it in the Summer sometimes. It is my humble opinion that this CD has literally the best arrangements of any Choir CD or Christmas CD I have ever heard.TRACK LISTING FOR THIS CDAngels and Shepherds; Lullaby for Baby Jesus; March of The Three KingsAs Lately We Watched; Midst The Deep Silence; I Am So Happy On Christmas EveChristmas Is Here Again; King Jesus Hath A Garden; Stars Were GleamingCompanions All Sing Loudly; Pat-A-Pan; Masters in This HallHear The Glad Tidings; Gloucestershire Wassail; I Saw Three ShipsI Wonder As I Wander; God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen; Good Christian Men RejoiceJoseph Dearest, Joseph Mine; Rocking CarolLo, How A Rose E'er Blooming; To All The Earth; Ring, Little BellOn The Night When Jesus Came; What Child Is This?; Mary's LullabyStill, Still, Still; Happy Christmas Comes Once More; Here We Come A' CarolingThe Search for Lodging; Oh, Hush Thee My Baby; Ding Dong!

This is my absolute favorite Christmas CD. In fact, I play it once in awhile even when it is not Christmas. I t seems it is no longer in production. I am sorry to hear that. It is a real treasure.

The music is great - some very nice arrangements of a variety of carols I just wish the web page would include a listing of the songs. I returned the item only because I already had purchased this disc some years ago - that's why a listing of the carols would have been helpful. I would have immediately recognized the CD. But if you like carols that go beyond the standard ones of the season this is worth picking up.

Il y a 40 ans , j'ai eu la chance de les entendre chanter à Salt Lake City , dans leur auditorium . Ce CD est encore en dessous de la joie que cette chorale diffuse à travers ses chants de Noël. Ce CD est cependant superbe. Bon réveillon à tous
