The Meaning of Christmas

The Meaning of Christmas

Catholic Brass is a group of brass players from St. Michael the Archangel Church in Woodstock, Georgia. They perform with a world class choir, and organist and music director Michael W. Ostro. Their Advent CD, Prepare the Way, which includes scriptural readings by their pastor, Father Larry Niese, is set to beautiful music. Another CD, Holy Art Thou, contains traditional Catholic choral music performed in concert in Rome, Italy. Here are a few track samples. I especially like The Angel Gabriel.
