The Christmas Album Soloists!


If you live in the Philippines, you probably already have the new Christmas Album. Hannah is the first person I heard of who got it. She did not get the Deluxe one, but it still has the picture cards. So does the Deluxe just have an extra silver ornament? She bought hers at the SM Megamall Record Bar. It's also available at Odyssey, Astroplus and Tower Records. She said her favorite song is "Still, Still, Still" and that Stefan's voice on "White Christmas" is reason alone to buy this album! Josh's voice in his solo is very, very low. :D

And thanks to Libera360, we have the soloists list. I count 11 different names! :)

01. Joy To the World

02. Still, Still, Still - Solo: Ralph Skan

03. Carol of the Bells

04. Veni, Veni Emmanuel - Solo: Daniel Fontannaz

05. Once In Royal David's City - Solo: Eoghan McCarthy

06. O Holy Night - Solo: Ralph Skan

07. White Christmas - Solo: Stefan Leadbeater

08. Corpus Christi Carol - Solos: Ralph Skan & James Mordaunt

09. In Dulci Jubilo

10. Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas - Solos: James Mordaunt & Ralph Skan

11. Sing the Story - Solo: Luke Collins

12. Coventry Carol - Solos: Joshua Madine, Ralph Skan & Stefan Leadbeater

13. The First Nowell - Solo: Freddie Ingles

14. Jubilate Deo - Solo: Jakob De Menezes-Wood

15. While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks - Solo: Cassius O'Connell-White

16. Lullabye - Solo: Joshua Madine with Jakob de Menezes Wood & Benedict Philipp

Wow! What a great group of soloists! I really like that this album reflects a lot of the different soloists that make up Libera. There isn't just one person who gets all the solos. I'm sure Ralph and Stefan will be as amazing as ever, can't wait to hear Daniel, Freddie, James, and Jakob again, and I'm really looking forward to more Eoghan, Luke, Cassius, and Josh! I think it's really awesome that they're highlighting the "big boys" more now! Their voices are all so deep and rich and full! I can't wait to hear the album!!!!

  3. Hi,Anna Christina! Well, I couldn't agree with you until today. But now I have the CD, and you're right! His voice on this song is awesome! Lower than on Lullabye of course, but still really great! :D
