Here’s another one we almost missed–but not quite! The Wexford Carol goes all the way back to 12th-century Ireland, hence the bagpipes in the background. This beautiful version is performed by Alison Krauss and the legendary Yo-Yo Ma on cello.
Hey, everybody, it’s Christmas Eve! Let’s finish our Carol Contest with a flash! Tomorrow’s Christmas, and we want to make the earth and the sky shiver with Christmas music.
For Jesus Christ is come in the flesh.
Incredibly lovely.
How about “The First Noel”?
Coming right up.
Wow I didn’t know the backstory to this song and how rich it is historically!
Beautiful!
