So Hallow’d the Time

This release—the Taylor Festival Choir’s second album for Delos—features original Christmas works by two distinguished American composers: Brian Galante, whose choral works and arrangements have met with worldwide acclaim; and the late, great Stephen Paulus, whose many choral and orchestral compositions have been performed by America’s leading choirs and orchestras. The two multi-movement works presented in this album — Galante’s So Hallow’d the Time and Paulus’s Christmas Dances — are heard here in world premiere recordings.
