Christmas Mass

Recently released on EMI Gold by BBC Radio 3 Choir of the Year, Chantage, Ronald Corp’s A Christmas Mass combines the time-honoured Latin text with the melodies of over 70 familiar carols and hymns in a musical feast for all lovers of a traditional Christmas.

Some of the tunes provide important thematic material. Others appear more briefly in the joyful accompaniment for organ or piano. All are skilfully woven into a bright and attractive score that will reach out to every member of an audience or congregation in a unique celebration of the season’s musical heritage.
