Noel: Christmas in France

Noel - December 2015 With Noel: Christmas in France, the Manhattan Choral Ensemble revived its holiday performances of music from countries deeply involved in New York City history. Our tribute to France was performed in the historic St. Jean Baptiste Catholic Church, with musical selections including Renaissance gems from Mouton and Caurroy, modern masterpieces by Francis Poulenc, and charming Christmas carols from the countryside. Readings from French authors on the preciousness of the Christmas season accompanied the program in a nod to our popular Readings and Carols series from the past five years.
