Indra HughesAbout
This beautiful album from one of New Zealand's leading choirs is a sequel to the very successful 'Christmas a cappella', which was No.1 in the NZ classical charts in 2001.
This second programme of unaccompanied Christmas choral music is performed by one of New Zealand’s most successful choirs and includes a wide variety o pieces: some well known Christmas favourites, some familiar tunes in new arrangements, and some pieces that have not been recorded before.
The music ranges from the sixteenth century to the present day, with composers from America, Germany, Austria, England, Ireland, France, Italy and New Zealand.
Musica Sacra, established in 1998, is a chamber choir of around 35 voices with an enviable reputation for choral singing of magnificence and extraordinary finesse. Founded and directed by Dr Indra Hughes, "New Zealand music's Richie McCaw" (New Zealand Listener, December 2011), the choir is recognised as one of New Zealand's foremost cultural assets.
