get into the Christmas spirit
I have numerous Christmas CDs but find myself listening to this one most often. Both groups are superb, both individually and when they sing together. Some of the carols are so beautiful they can bring you to tears.

I love this CD
I actually attended this concert in Salt Lake City. It was just spectacular. My Dad loved listening to the King Singes, so I think of him a little when I heat this CD. The DVD is as well just as awesome. The King Singers voices together with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir create such an amazing sound. My favorite is O Holy Night which teared me up a bit at the concert as it is just stunning.

Spectacular and glorious.
The King's Singers join The Mormon Tabernacle Choir on this latest Christmas CD, and it is wonderful from beginning to end. I've long been an admirer of The King's Singers, with their wide-ranging repertoire and cheeky, dry humor. And they have several stand-out performances here, both with the Choir and on their own. I love especially their rapid-fire take on "Jingle Bells" and the lovely "La peregrinación." The Choir sounds absolutely glorious here as well, from the soaring "The First Nowell" to the brand-new processional "Rejoice and Be Merry". But my favorite tracks are those where the two groups join forces - most especially on the new Mack Wilberg setting of "O Holy Night" which is ...transcendent. Here's the full track listing:

3. The First Nowell (Choir and Orchestra) 4:58

9. Joseph Dearest, Joseph Mine (Choir and Orchestra) 4:29
10. Ding Dong! Merrily on High (Choir and Orchestra) 2:50
11. O Holy Night (Choir Men and Orchestra, featuring The King's Singers) 6:49
12. One December, Bright and Clear (Choir Women and Orchestra) 1:53
