I have all of Rutter's Christmas CD's and have admired the Cambridge Singers for years. This Christmas compilation does not meet the same standard as Rutter's earlier holiday collections. Although his arrangements are varied and interesting, it appears that Rutter, sucked into the mainstream of secular-style Christmas music, has sold out in order to reach a wider audience. With full-vibrato-ed voices, the women soloists sound more like pop singers. The purity and clarity of tone he strove to ... Read More

It was electrifying yet awe inspiring, as if it was composed for this history making year we have had with a fresh immediacy, the effect being as I imagine the angels had appearing to the shepherds unaware, and I had when I first heard of the dark horse candidate Obama's rise. I knew I had to have this John Rutter Christmas music on hearing an excerpt on NPR, and before the piece had finished, I rang our church's choir master and told him to turn it on. The phone rang as soon as it was over, and ... Read More

This new CD is stunning with wonderful music from various composers. some new to me, and, a wonderful new John Rutter composition.

I have been a church organist for many years and have had the wonderful opportunity of playing Mr. Rutter's music, as well as other wonderful choral anthems of other British composers. I highly recommend this to all viewers!!!

When it comes to choral singing, John Rutter's Cambridge Singers are pretty much the gold standard.
What actually was a surprise was learning that this is the new first ... Read More

While Christmas music is not the only specialty of John Rutter and the Cambridge Singers, it seems that he and this musical ensemble have an affinity for the music of the holiday season. This is evident in his newest release A CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL.
Seasoned fans of earlier releases, as well as people new to Rutter and the Cambridge Singers will find much to enjoy in A CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL. For new listeners, the beauty will be astounding. For longtime fans, it has everything that made his earlier ... Read More
