Christmas is Coming: A collection of carols for Advent & Christmas. Composed, arranged & edited by Nicholas Temperley. Both a dedicated carol singer & an authority on the history of English music, he offers here a unique book of 37 carols dating from the fifteenth century to the present. As John Rutter observes in his Foreword, the book does not pointlessly duplicate what can be found in many other carol books, but has a personality & purpose of its own.
