"Christmas favourites 2020: The range of music inspired by Christmas across the European continent is enormous, and much of it is rarely heard. Thomas Hengelbrock and the Balthasar-Neumann-Chor take us on a tour encompassing England, Russia, Iceland, Catalonia, Poland, the Czech Republic, Denmark and more for a truly pan-European celebration of the festive season".

"A programme that travels from France to Scandinavia, Russia, Bohemia, Germany, Catalonia, the Netherlands and England and stays in each territory for four or five tracks, long enough to make the point. This is an earnest album, and the performances match it: the singing can lack glow but takes stylistic implications seriously ... Unsurprisingly, it's at its best in northern European numbers ... No jazz hands or brass fanfares here - just a touching surrogate for all the European connectivity lost in 2020".
