Playing the RVW Christmas Fantasia today reminded me of the truly magical experience of leading it in a performance given by our school choir at the crowded local Norman parish church in Surrey, at age 17 - the nave and chancels illuminated by hundreds of flickering candles alone. Probably be a H&S issue today.Comment

"...the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

If you overlook the rather saccharine art work, one of the finest compilations of Yuletide music spanning the ages and countries (eg Hildegard to Webern).
