Brother Heinrich's Christmas by John Rutter

Brother Heinrich's Christmas by John Rutter

A fable with music for narrator, mixed choir, and small orchestra, or oboe, bassoon, and piano This delightful work tells the story of the 14th-century Dominican mystic Heinrich Suso who, according to legend, notated the carol In dulci jubilo after it had been sung to him by a band of angels; he is unexpectedly aided by Sigismund, his donkey. The work has been recorded by the Cambridge Singers and the City of London Sinfonia with Brian Kay (narrator), conducted by the composer. It forms part of a recording of the Christmas music of John Rutter (Collegium COLC 102).

John Rutter studied music at Clare College, Cambridge and first came to notice as a composer and arranger of Christmas carols and other choral pieces during those early years; today his compositions, including such concert-length works as Requiem, Magnificat, Mass of the Children, The Gift of Life, and Visions are performed around the world. John edits the Oxford Choral Classics series, and, with Sir David Willcocks, co-edited four volumes of Carols for Choirs. In 1983 he formed his own choir The Cambridge Singers, with whom he has made numerous recordings on the Collegium Records label, and he appears regularly in several countries as a guest conductor and choral ambassador. John holds a Lambeth Doctorate in Music, and was awarded a CBE for services to music in 2007.
