Advent is one of the wonderful times in the year that there are choir 
concerts galore. I could never tire of this wonderful work of Britten's 
so I thought it would be nice to see it here in aaa. I hope you all have 
a chance to hear it at least once this season.

There is a good description of the piece at

I almost chose Britten's other work Saint Nicholas, Op. 42 for tenor, 
chorus, and orchestra because I love the part about the pickled boys 
being rescued by Saint Nicholas. I guess that can be for another 
year....
