MDG 947 1651-6

What an excellent thought: Christmas in romantic choral settings. If you want to still with the accuracy and style of the North German Figural Choir under Jörg Straube performed in pure a cappella culture one may rely on equally contemplative ...like beautiful performances.

At the beginning of the 20th century a Series of songbooks to support the spiritual and to promote secular choral singing. In In 1915 Leipzig was the "Folk song book for the mixed choir" was published, in 1928 came for the first time the "Folk song book for the youth" out. From these two collections and other publications, the Norddeutsche Figural choir during the composition of this Christmas CD.

"In dulci jubilo", "Sleep my baby", "It's a Ros sprung up" and "Silent Night"... What for a fascination to see these old Christmas carols with romantic depth new to experience. No wonder if names like Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, Alban Berg and Max Reger decorate the notes. But also names like Carl Herner, Friedrich Silcher and Felix Woyrsch hold musical gems to Decrees that make listening a pleasure.
