Christmas Day, from Old Town Hall in Almonte, Ontario, it's Andrew Craig's Gospel Christmas. Jackie Richardson, Sharon Riley & Faith Chorale and others join CBC Radio's Andrew Craig for a special night of favourite Christmas carols, done Gospel-style! It covers a wide range of musical genres, all under the Gospel umbrella - from traditional old-time Gospel, to modern funk and calypso, with many stops in between.
Handel's Messiah

The annual broadcast of Handel's Messiah is a treasured holiday tradition for CBC listeners. This year, Eric Friesen presents a made-in-Canada Messiah: a live concert recording by the National Arts Centre Orchestra, soloists, and two choirs: the Cantata Singers of Ottawa, and Seventeen Voyces, all under the direction of leading Baroque interpreter Trevor Pinnock. The soloists include some of Canada's finest vocal stars: Kathleen Brett, soprano; Marie-Nicole Lemieux, contralto; Gordon Gietz, tenor, and Joshua Hopkins, baritone. |
