Away In A Manger. St John's College Choir, Cambridge

[PC2011HK]

If only life could be so much simpler.

The joy of the memories of participation.

Let these little ones come onto Him and forbid them not.

Please let the Children celebrate Christmas - no matter how old or how young....

It's nice and calming. Something to listen to when your going to bed

[madtwatter88]

Beautiful.  :)

[Pluckje]

beautiful, but it doesn't look like they're enjoying the singing - making the song sound so sad instead of hopeful

@Pluckje

AIAM is a song of quiet, personal wonder, not a jolly "Jingle Bell Rock" job. But this is turgid and pompous: over-arranged yet still sounding amateur and under-rehearsed . Mostly competent, doing-their-best choristers (viz, those not miming & only there cos Daddy bought St.J a new library) forced into doing KTel-gone-wrong but a couple of "Father Ted" types.

and that amateur -sounding organ! WTF is this some Botempi advert?

Deserved the desultory applause nd nothing more.

[Pluckje]

@custardaghost right on, agreed :D I laughed out loud, reading your comment. Yay for freedom of speech !

[MrSbunk]

Who did arrange this for choir?

[Leslie42363]

@MrSbunk I believe the arrangement is by John Rutter. If not, it's very similar.

[DonRaphel]

@Leslie42363 No it's an arrangement by the conductor in this video: David Hill

[Heuraufeify]

Just Beautiful!! Who arranged this and where can I get this arrangement?

[mcsw99]

The arrangement is by David Hill (director of the Choir at that time) and is published by Chester-Novello in an album "Noel."

Beautiful singing from a top class choir. Reminds me of Christmas when I was younger. Thanks for uploading this DR.
