Stephan Adams- Christmas at Trinity
The choir at Trinity Church, Wall Street, led by Owen Burdick has here recorded a truly delightful disc of Christmas favorites, book-ended by the traditional Once in Royal David's City and Hark! The Herald Angels Sing - as a nod to the famous Kings College program of lessons and Carols - and filled with choral music ranging from the familiar to the lesser-known. This recording follows their tremendously successful recording of Handel's Messiah released two years ago and positively reviewed in The New York Times and Early Music America and called by American Record Guide, an "excellent addition to the catalog". Here again, Burdick and Trinity Church offers Christmas gems all recorded in the glorious acoustic of that historic space. Trinity Church holds a special place in the history of Christmas music, having been the site of the New World premiers of both the Messiah and the Christmas carol Silent Night included here.
