100 Carols for Choirs:
Absolutely marvelous collection with wonderful descants and interesting arrangements. I have given copies to many people because I love this book so MUCH!!! If you've ever lived in England, or ever loved CDs of King's College Choir or St. John's College Choir from Cambridge, England, you will discover the arrangements in this great book!
A must have:

If you're looking for some great arrangements of classic pieces, this is the book you want. Perfect for the classroom and more.more info Much impressed:
