Description:
David Bednall's Christmas cantata Welcome All Wonders was commissioned and first performed by the Choir of Queen's College, Oxford in 2012 and received rave reviews from, among others, BBC Music Magazine, Limelight Magazine and Gramophone. Described as 'ingenious', 'engaging', 'spirited', 'extremely appealing' and 'accessible without being superficial', a recording of this notable work is available on the Signum label (SIGCD335). This cantata brings together a beautiful selection of sacred and secular Christmas texts, skilfully interwoven by Bednall to produce a captivating musical narrative of the Christmas story, from Advent through to Epiphany. As a complete work of c.80 minutes' duration, it offers choirs a full programme for their Christmas concert. Alternatively, most movements can be performed as individual items; the unaccompanied motets are particularly suited to this and are available separately as digital downloads.
