The Word is proud to share the latest podcast in the America Media family: Hark! The stories behind our favorite Christmas carols.
Even though “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing” was never meant to be a Christmas carol, it has proven one of the most popular in history. We’re exploring its soaring descants and hallmark harmonizations with conductor/composer Colin Britt. And we’re unpacking its many scriptural allusions with Laurie Brink, a Dominican sister and New Testament scholar.
Subscribe to the entire Hark! podcast series online, on apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
Special thanks to the Choir of King’s College, Cambridge, the Ignatian Schola
and One Hope Project, for allowing us to play parts of their recordings of “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing.”
