Advent is here with all its beautiful music!

Advent is possibly my favorite time of year and once reason is because of all the beautiful music. For decades I have loved the music that comes from the English composers and sung by the English choirs and choirboys. I believe that is is a great way for us to get into Advent today! William Dutton on BBC Songs Of Praise (Advent Sunday, 2 December, 2007).

Will sings the first verse of O Come, O Come, Emmanuel and there is a short interview by Aled Jones, followed by a solo performance from Will of The Truth From Above.

Will is a member of The Choirboys whose new CD, The Carols Album, has just been released.

One of my favorite hymns by one of my favorite choirs

This has always been one of my favorite hymns and when it's performed by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir it will take you straight up to Heaven...metaphorically speaking, of course!

What are some of your favorites?
