"This collection of 20 carol arrangements plus four original Christmas compositions by Ralph Vaughan Williams, with performances by a superb choir that many listeners-at least outside of England-may not know, is the kind of recording that should easily find a place in your annual holiday music rotation".

"This is the third disc I've heard by William Vann and his choir in recent weeks - one was a disc issued by another label - and I've been seriously impressed each time. Here is a flexible, well-blended ensemble whose singing gives consistent pleasure ... There's a lot of less than familiar material here but all of it is well worth hearing, especially in such expert performances".

"VW's arrangement of 'The Truth Sent from Above' is the pick of them, not least for baritone Angus McPhee's eloquent solo. The 'Nine Carols for Male Voices' are world premiere recordings of arrangements for World War II troops stationed in Iceland. A dark-toned, introspective harmonisation of 'Coventry Carol' and a jaunty 'I Saw Three Ships' stand out particularly. Clear-toned, welcoming performances".

"No extraneous emotive buttons are pushed on 'A Vaughan Williams Christmas' ... All in all, it's very sober fare for Christmas - dry even - but it is impossible to dismiss given its content, its neat performances from the Royal Hospital Chapel Choir and its thorough academic contextualisation ... It's difficult to hear the 'Mummer's Carol' without considering the British troops for whom it was written, stationed in a windswept Iceland during the Second World War. 'A Vaughan Williams Christmas' is a disc about Christmas, not for Christmas".
