Wonderful Christmas Carols
I found this book extremely good, the pages are clearly typed and the actual music easy to read. I have found it to be a very good source of Advent Carols old and new for our church choir.I would definitively recommend it to anyone involved in religious music.

Only a bit curate's egg-ish
This book gathers together a huge amount of material, much of it very good indeed. One caveat - in some items the words may not be what you expect: for example the Great O Antiphons have an english version of the text that I had not encountered before and the Vaghan Williams 'This is the truth sent from above' has irritating minor changes to the text and the verse about The Fall is missing, making for a slightly odd narrative.
