Description:
Christmas is a great time to pull out a few special stops, and what better way than to dress up a carol everyone looks forward to singing than to add a string quartet!
Robert Powell is renowned for devising some of the most solid and ingenious hymn concertatos in any catalog, and he surely does not disappoint with this “Adeste Fidelis.”
The congregation rounds out the final stanza with a robust rendition of the melody while the choir gets its only canny harmonization.
