Rezensionen
Volumes such as this fill a valuable gap in the market. The international dimension also makes of them a labour of love for the editing team. Twenty-nine composers from 27 countries, each writing a carol in his or her own language (and I counted 20 different languages!) with most carols needing their own alternative text in English and a phonetic pronunciation guide - it hardly bears thinking of! Such projects do not seem to daunt the team at OUP, however . . . However, there is also music reflective of American spirituals, African praise songs and Latin rhythms, to name just a few of the world traditions that should make of this volume a stimulating source book for choir directors.
