Classical music, 2018 December
"John Rutter pops up with many other usual suspects in O Holy Night ... which pairs the Choir of Merton College, Oxford with the Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra. This is a lavish mille-feuille of seasonal sweetness, expertly constructed by director Banjamin Nicholas, who has chosen his 'favourite popular carols'"

"Recording of the week: If you're in the market for a superbly sung collection of festive favourites old and new, look no further than O Holy Night from the Choir of Merton College Oxford, who've established themselves as one of the finest mixed-voice Oxbridge choirs over the past decade or so - the gently glowing, rapt account of Morten Lauridsen's O magnum mysterium which closes the disc dispelled even my post-Rome mutterings of Bah Humbug"

"In terms of repertoire, this is probably the most popular they've Merton College Choir made to date but I have no problem with that ... It's always good to hear familiar music performed to the very highest standard ... Many of the offerings here are tried and trusted Christmas pieces ... Throughout this disc Benjamin Nicholas and his superb choir are on top form ... This excellent and highly enjoyable disc has definitely put me in a Christmas mood"
