David Stevens: Born On a New Day/Christmas Music

Get ready to have your stockings rocked off by the heavenly harmonies of CHOIR OF BELFAST CATHEDRAL led by the maestro himself, David Stevens! "Born On A New Day" is a festive feast of Christmas music that will have you singing along whether you're in the pews or the pub. This album is as British as a mince pie washed down with a pint of Guinness on a wintry night. The vocals soar higher than Santa's sleigh, with each note hitting like a snowball to the eardrums. Stevens' direction is like a conductor guiding Rudolph's nose in the dark, leading the choir through traditional carols and enchanting anthems with grace and precision. From the hauntingly beautiful "Silent Night" to the foot-stomping joy of "Ding Dong Merrily on High", every track on this album is a festive delight. Even the grumpiest Scrooge will find their heart warmed by the angelic voices and lush arrangements on offer here. So grab a cup of mulled wine, cozy up by the fire, and let the CHOIR OF BELFAST CATHEDRAL serenade you into the Christmas spirit. This album is the perfect soundtrack to your yuletide celebrations, and a reminder that even in the darkest of nights, music has the power to shine a light and bring us together in joy and harmony. Five stars from this merry music reviewer!
