A classic carol text is given a refreshing Baroque treatment by veteran Tom Fettke in A Christmas Canticle. The lilting, buoyant accompaniment drives the anthem throughout, creating a bright and spirited celebration. The instrumentation contains flute, oboe, clarinet, horn 1 & 2 (alto sax), keyboard, violin 1 & 2, viola (clarinet 3), cello, and string bass.
