Magnum Mysterium

Regardless of how one might choose to celebrate Christmas today, we believe that this music can contribute atmosphere, light and hope at the darkest time of the year. Grex Vocalis have brought together some of the most beautiful Christmas music for a cappella choir.

O magnum mysterium — the opening words of Midnight Mass at Christmas — also express the shepherds' awe upon seeing the child in the manger. The music of the festive season describes the great contrasts of the nativity. Here we find music inspired by the sense of wonder that the shepherds and the wise men must have felt on coming face to face with the great mystery.
