Listening to some of the Xmas musicposted by cmcmck is a joy. Here is my addition to that list, more modern perhaps, but just as beautiful, and not just specifically for Xmas. John Tavener, The Lamb.
I am watching the series about Canterbury Cathedral on BBC2. This track, The Lamb, was sung by the boys' choir in the first episode. A wonderful, spiritual experience - the true essence of Christmas. Whether or not you are of the Christian faith is no matter. This programme is truly up-lifting. If you haven't seen it it's available on the BBC iPlayer. Highly recommended. Canterbury is my spiritual home, having been born within 12 miles of the sound of the bells.
