Biography

The Cambridge Singers are a mixed-voice chamber choir, formed in 1981 by their director John Rutter for the express purpose of making recordings.

The nucleus of the group was originally provided by former members of the chapel choir of Clare College, Cambridge (where John Rutter was Director of Music from 1975-79), supplemented by former members of other collegiate choirs. Today the choir is one of… Read more in Amazon's The Cambridge Singers Store

Editorial Reviews

In 1997, this recording became the most successful first-year release in Collegium history. Mastered from an original 1981 digital tape, once thought lost forever, it is actually the first-ever recording by The Cambridge Singers. It contains 22 Christmas songs, including The Christmas Song, written by Mel Tormé.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Rutter Choral Triumph, September 21, 2000
By 
Daniel G. Berk (West Bloomfield, Michigan) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Christmas Star: Carols for the Christmas Season (Audio CD)
Once again, John Rutter works his choral magic with the Cambridge Singers and turns out another extraordinary collection of Christmas carols. All the popular ones are here, the only down side being that there are no carols composed by Rutter himself. There is one bonus, in effect, hearing the Rutter choral treatment applied to The Christmas Song by Mel Torme and Robert Wells. It's never sounded better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without this one, December 22, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Christmas Star: Carols for the Christmas Season (Audio CD)
I love this CD. The voices are so pure and beautifully blended. Rutter's arrangements are brilliant. It's really hard to pick a favorite, but I do love "All My Heart This Night Rejoices." Absolutely wonderful! Anyone who appreciates good choral music should get this CD and make it part of your holidays.
