Truly the peak of civilization's achievement for this year. I am very blessed just to be able to hear this choir from my New York home on Christmas Eve. Thank you from the debts of my spirit and soul.

@pjs077 Blessings to you!

I like this version it almost comes as near as good but, not better than the Scottish National Chorus Conducted by none other than John Currie.

@TheDresden777 Can you post a link to some of their material?

This version was only written for a boys chorus, but there are many excellent versions to choose from.

Astounding how the harmony and the melody sound so sweet

[pangursperson]

sweet singing of the choir indeed :-)

What a very excellent tenor soloist. You know, being a musician myself I am always astounded how the directors of boys choirs are able to train 11 and 12 year-olds to this level of musicianship. It just seems counter-intuitive to me because they simply aren't mature enough emotionally to and intellectually to have the necessary discipline and grasp the musical nuance and yet clearly they do....
