Customer Reviews

Rutter's Carols

John Rutter is one of the most gifted church composers working today. This book is part of a series of Christmas Carol books he has edited,and this one contains mostly his arrangements of somewhat lesser known carols. It's easy to read, clearly printed. It's a great choice for a group looking for good music that hasn't been played to death around the world.

Carols for Choirs 3

This item was extremely helpful in choosing carols for church services during the Christmas season. It gave us a choice of several carols with various arrangements. A great choice for anyone working with church groups.
