This 2021 collection leans towards the older, more solemn part of the repertoire rather than chasing bells and novelty, which is the right instinct. There's a reason Christmas Eve is the specific night of the title, that silence before morning, the family gathered, the world briefly quiet. The album aims for precisely this feeling and hits a lot of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCarol of the Bells arrives with all the choral machinery in motion, all cascading counterpoint and increasing urgency, while Silent Night is delivered almost too simply, and is all the more impactful for it. In the Bleak Mid-Winter gets the treatment Christina Rossetti's words deserve, quiet and genuinely cold. Christmas 1915 is the exception and the emotional center of the album, telling the story of the war truce when soldiers on both sides stopped shooting long enough to sing, sung here without a trace of sentimentality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFifteen titles for the only night of the year when everyone agrees to sing along.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vinylestore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67910332350541,"sku":"792755663165","price":41.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/9131\/7325\/files\/Celtic_Thunder-Celtic_Christmas_Eve_White.jpg?v=1794005683"}],"url":"https:\/\/vinylestore.shop\/collections\/celtic-thunder.oembed","provider":"Vinylestore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
