Josquin des Pres, i.e. the 1450s form the beginning of the five centuries of rich European choral music out of which the present modest collection was compiled.

In addition, masterworks of the Romantic literature of the 19th century cast in the shadow so far are presented in abundance. It is the task of the 'next century' to provide an overall picture of the world-wide choral culture of our times, the 20th century...' Miklos Forrai (1994).

The journey from Advent to Christmas is filled with vivid images of beloved traditions: the lighting of candles and Christmas trees as the light of Christ glows with increasing intensity; decorations of evergreens, symbols of the promise of rebirth; the emergence of stars atop the trees to guide the pilgrim journey; the presentation of gifts in celebration of God's great gift to us all. Throughout the centuries, believers have sung carols that celebrate these traditions, and A Garland of Carols combines these elements. It includes five suites, one for each Sunday in Advent and a fifth for Christmas Eve. Each includes an opening carol for choir and a closing medley for choir and optional congregation, as well as narratives for candle-lighting and inspired stories and scriptures for that suite's theme. The flexible choral texture makes it ideal as a one-rehearsal program for larger choirs or as an easily rehearsed program for smaller ensembles.
