This CD was recorded and released in 1994 and was the first collaboration between choirs in the Benelux region to record a CD together. A 'Hymnathon' had been held at Holy Trinity Utrecht to raise money for the restoration of their organ and the entire 'Hymns Ancient & Modern Revised' was sung through in one weekend. This generated great interest, and the church was invited to make a recording to commemorate the event. The idea was to record lesser-known hymns which would be interesting for the public to hear.
Following the success of the 'Hymnathon' CD it was decided to record a CD of Christmas music. This time the Choir was conducted by Martin van Bleek.
This is the latest CD to be released by the combined choirs. In contrast to the previous recording, this has more unusual carols and includes an organ solo piece specially written for the CD.
This recording is of the Anglican Singers from Amsterdam, conducted by Martin van Bleek. Founded in 1975, this choir seeks to promote English Church Music in all the various denominations in the Netherlands. The CD features pieces from the whole range of their repertoire and the organ is played by Gert Jan Velders and Patrick Hopper.
This recording was made by the choir of St. John & St. Philip, The Hague, conducted by Chris Farr. The CD aims to give as full a picture as possible of the range of music used in worship in the Anglican church at The Hague. This includes modern worship songs, organ music on the fine Goetze & Gwynn organ.
