This festive programme turns the Christmas concert into a musical journey, gathering much-loved carols from the home countries of the orchestra’s brass players and recasting them in bespoke arrangements by Joshua Davis. Traditional tunes such as “Stille Nacht”, “Es ist ein Ros entsprungen” and “We Three Kings” sit alongside discoveries from Spain, Denmark, Greece, Ukraine, Poland and Australia, each transformed into a characterful miniature—sometimes warmly traditional, sometimes rhythmically jazzy or playfully surprising. The twelve brass players and percussion shape these pieces with the same virtuosity and chamber-like sensitivity that define their work within the orchestra, reveling in glowing chorales, agile fanfares and shimmering pianissimo textures that seem to echo the golden instruments on the album cover. Expanded from a widely acclaimed family concert, this recording invites listeners of all ages to enjoy familiar melodies anew while offering a gentle wish for joy and peaceful coexistence across borders.
