Christmas in Rochester is special. There is an indefinable atmosphere that embraces both the quiet mystery of the incarnation and the brash excitement of one of the greatest festivals. The drama unfolds in a building that has stood for centuries, and in a place where peoplebegan to celebrate the Nativity barley two dozen generations after the birth of Jesus. This album mixes the range of music heard over the Christmas period.
