Rating: - Enjoyable For The Festive Season
Brilliant stuff to put on for Christmas. I was however unbelievably dissapointed when I found myself struggling to hear the carols.

Rating: - an absolute delight
Pop this on your sound system when the family's round for Christmas and I guarantee a hush will descend on the gathering. This is a fantastic album, with sobre, moving renditions of our most cherished Christmas carols. No glitz, no glitter, just beautiful, timeless songs, beautifully rendered. A treasure trove for adults and children alike. This is what Christmas is about!
