The Time of Snow

Cantilon Chamber Choir feat. Belle Canto
Released: December 09, 2012

The Time of Snow is Cantilon’s most popular disc to date. Featuring a choice selection from the vast repertoire of music for Christmas and the winter season, from the sixteenth century to our own time, the Cantilon Chamber Choir takes centre stage in stereo. Belle Canto and the Primary and Children’s Choirs feature on a number of tracks, and the choirs are joined once again by long-time Cantilon collaborator Nora Bumanis, one of Canada’s most sought-after harpists.
