Description
A magical arrangement of the beautiful Canadian Christmas hymn (Canada’s oldest Christmas song), which is also known as ‘Twas in the Moon of Wintertime.
‘In The Huron Carol, Andrew responds to the ethereal quality and wintery mood of Canada’s oldest Christmas song, setting this beautifully simple tune in an ambiguous, Downie-Himes inspired landscape. The layering of texture is magical.’ Paul Hindmarsh – Music critic
