| Publisher Description: With A Christmas Garland you are set for your Holiday Christmas music with Beloved Christmas carols and beautifully arranged brass selections. Sing Noel with Gloriae Dei Cantores is a Christmas treat from beginning to end. The recording opens with Sing Noel-- a colorful set of carols moving seamlessly from one to another. From Caroling, Caroling to My Dancing Day and The Holly and the Ivy -- this recording brings you a traditional Christmas experience that will brighten your Christmas cheer and warm your heart. Nothing heralds the majesty of Christmastime like the brilliance and beauty of brass and on the CD Christmas in Brass Gabriel V Brass Ensemble presents a collection of music for Christmas by masters of brass. Composers include Rolf Smedvig, Anthony DiLorenzo, Morten Lauridsen, William Berry, and more. From the overflow of joy in J.S.Bach's Wie will ich mich freuen, to the cinematic soundscape of DiLorenzo's Baltazar (A King's Journey), to the rosy-cheeked romp of Leroy Andersen's Sleigh Ride, each piece adds new luster to your celebration of this glorious season. |

Sharing its vision of inspiration and hope, the choir has touched the hearts of audiences in twenty-four countries in Europe and Asia, as well as extensive tours and concert series in the United States. The choir's catalog of more than fifty recordings showcases an expansive repertoire, encompassing both masterworks and rarely performed musical treasures from Gregorian chant to the twenty-first century.
