| Christmas with the Choral Scholars of King's College, Cambridge
The incomparable sound of the men of King's College is unleashed on everything from chant to "Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer." Close harmonies, impeccable tuning, and perfect programming make this a "must-have" CD for connoisseurs of the very best in vocal singing. Includes a hilarious setting of "The Twelve Days of Christmas" and an absolutely lush performance of White Christmas ("I'm dreaming of a White Christmas)."
