Seven Carols for Christmas

The enduring popularity of these arrangements has been a source of great satisfaction to me. It shows that these wonderful melodies, with their texts of love and hope, can unite different generations in the concert hall as well as in the church and at home. Even in the cacophony of today’s musical world, their message shines clear and true. So now, “good Christian folk, rejoice,” and join your voices in “tidings of comfort and joy!”
