A deeply moving musical account of the famous World War One Christmas truce. This arrangement of the song for solo baritone, SATB chorus and full orchestra captures the spirit and drama of the extraordinary 1914/15 event and has proved very popular on Veterans' Radio. Its message of peace and reconciliation makes it suitable for concert, school and church alike, especially as part of commemorative or patriotic events.
