The Cathedral Singers / Catholic Christmas Classics CD
The Cathedral Singers / Catholic Christmas Classics CD
The late, great Richard Proulx conducts the Cathedral Singers of Chicago, a professional chorus noted for its timeless recordings made in the famed Holy Name Cathedral of Chicago. The songs contained on this CD are definitive holiday classics—the one's that are always popular, that everyone sings and knows by heart. Despite this CD's title, it is not for Catholics only. Catholics are joined by Christians across other denominations in singing these ageless hymns.
What would Christmas Eve or Christmas Day be without these songs? You simply must have this incredible recording filled with all of the most beloved Catholic Christmas repertoire! Relish in O Holy Night as only the Cathedral Singers can perform it. Gesu Bambino will evoke memories of Christmases gone by. For Unto Us from Handel's Messiah is a masterpiece. You'll also hear Marilyn Biery's wonderful arrangement of Night of Silence. This CD makes a great gift for any holiday music lover.
