[MusicalSounds1]

Mooi nummer! Wij doen hem ook met het Ichthus Lyceum (Driehuis)

[XsaviorofthebrokenX]

My high school is doing this for their "Seasonal Celebration" this year. We're doing an all-women's piece, but it's still just as beautiful.

'The best time of the year

When everyone comes home

With all this Christmas cheer

It's hard to be alone'

:)

[MightyNenianos]

That was so lovely, My choir will be singing this at Christmas and I only hope we can do it as well as this. Truely beautiful.

Looks like I will have to actually buy a John Rutter compilation CD. This is so very lovely but I can't get it loud enough - its' all so infectious - all the fault of these marvellous Youtube clips!!

My choir sang this song this christmas time! It is sooo beautiful! I am sad that Christmas is over and we have to stop singing it!

John Rutter is a Legend!!!!!

[dieulinh007]

haha, mine sang it too <3

[MayaFelice]

mine too=D

[DGX620vocalist]

you do know that there is a version called Ave Maria with the same melody and harmonies but just different lyrics that can be sang at any time of the year

[Pester09]

Yep my choir "La Escala" in Colombia sings it.

It goes like this in case you know some spanish Joven y humilde doncella de Nazareth a quien Dios padre un ángel envio...

Love it!

[bwoodsfinest]

lol yeah i sang this when i was in ninth grade for glee club

[moonliteforest]

beautiful song!

should have sang this in our last christmas concert...

[laersel]

Wir haben dieses Lied dieses Jahr zum ersten Mal auf deutsch gesungen... wunderbar... so macht Weihnachten Spaß... dieser Vortrag hier ist spitzenmäßig!

[rosamund123]

we sang the SSA version of this recently; quite different (it's in G, for a start) but just as pretty. you don't get the fullness of texture but it sounds quite innocent with just women. I like this too though

[Billie508]

i love john rutters songs, this one especially and singing it tonight at the nine carols and readings at church tonight. He composes such beautiful christian song, but can't understand why he is an athiest is because of him losing his son?

[matty4heather]

John Rutter has this ability of being able to write music that evokes such emotion and can do it with or without orchestral accompaniment! Listen to the accapella verse of candlelight carol and how beautiful his harmonies are! John Rutter you are gifted.

[KingKramden]

This, in my opinion, is the loveliest Christmas carol I've heard in many a year. What a beautiful blending of reverence for both Mary and the Son she bore:

Clear in the darkness, a light shines in Bethlehem,

Angels are singing, their sound fills the air;

Wise men have journeyed, to meet their Messiah,

But only a mother and baby lie there.

Ave Maria, Ave Maria,

Hear the soft lullaby the angel hosts sing;

Ave Maria, Ave Maria,

Maiden, and mother, of Jesus our King.

[blackbloodyalex]

this song is part of our christmas concert...

it's great...i love it
