The Choirs of the Maîtrise de Sainte-Anne-d'Auray sing a Christmas concert recorded by the Academy of Music and Sacred Arts. This concert, traditionally offered in the granite setting of the Breton sanctuary, was compromised by the health crisis. Good news! For the holidays, this piece of Brittany is shared thanks to a recording made in December in a basilica enhanced by magical lighting. On the program, Christmas hits (Il est né le divin enfant, Entre le bœuf et l'âne gris, Noël nouvelet, etc.) dialogue with the Breton melodies of this time (Peh trouz zou ar en douar, etc.) through a few pieces from the repertoire (Veni, veni Emmanuel by Zoltan Kodaly, Angels' carol by John Rutter, etc.). The mystery of the Nativity never ceases to enchant musicians and young singers. From the youngest to the oldest, they offer everyone a musical garland of Christmases from Brittany and elsewhere.
