Below is a lovely French carol, "Noel Nouvelet." In the English, we often hear it sung as "Sing We Now of Christmas." Performed in the original French, here is the King's College Choir of the University of Cambridge, England. Enjoy!

Noel Nouvelet
I've been camping out on YouTube lately, searching the video archives for classical and traditional performances of various carols. I fear the slow decline of traditional worship attendance will sadly make 4-part choral performances less accessible to many, leaving exposure of such music to schools that can afford choir programs. Nevertheless, there is beautiful music out there to be found, to be heard and enjoyed.

I know what you mean. I went and hit a few Messiah choruses yesterday. To me, it just isn't the Christmas season until I've heard the Hallelujah Chorus at least once.
