"This is a treat: an American Christmas extravaganza for truly fearless choirs. Some familiar Christmas pieces, and others less well known here, are given the stardust treatment by several eminent arrangers." - Music Teacher, Oct 07 "There are plenty of slush, juicy, jazzy harmonies to smooch through in the simpler numbers. The volume is aimed at advanced choirs, but many of the numbers do not look especially difficult." - Matthew Greenall, The Singer, Oct 07 "For the competent choir, this collection will be a must-have. Here are numbers to open or round off your Christmas concert year after year: to draw your audience in, with bright eyes and happy smiles of anticipation; to send them home with feet
a-tapping and lighter of heart." - The Organ, November 07
