Fun fact about me: I am an alto in my church choir, and I actually love religious choral music. And this time of year in particular is GREAT for church music, since there are so many beautiful Christmas carols and hymns. My choir was supposed to perform the following piece for a Lessons & Carols service a few weeks ago, but it was sadly canceled due to snow. But since I absolutely adore this song, I at least had to share it with the Internet! So here is a Christmas carol called “Jesus Christ the Apple Tree,” written by Elizabeth Poston and performed by the Choir of King’s College, Cambridge:
What a beautiful, beautiful performance. Choral music may not be my top choice to listen to but it gives me goosebumps every time!
Yeah, it’s not my go-to music either, but there are so many beautiful old Christmas carols that ought to be heard during the holidays!
