Highlights include the melodically and rhythmically rich 'Make we joy now in this fest' and 'All this time', by Sir William Walton, one of Christ Church's most famous alumni; John Rutter's modern masterpiece 'Hymn to the Creator of Light' and Simon Preston's timeless 'There is no rose'. There are also two settings by former Organists of Christ Church: Stephen Darlington's arrangement of 'Silent Night', and his successor Steven Grahl's setting of 'O nata lux'.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e'If Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without the sound of boys' voices then A Lullaby Carol: Christmas at Christ Church is an excellent choice.' \\x96  \u003ci\u003eChoir \u0026amp; Organ\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e''Make we joy now in this fest' and 'All this time' by William Walton, a Christ Church alumnus, showcase the choir's robust, ripe-toned attack.' \\x96 \u003ci\u003eBBC Music Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e (4 stars)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWalton: Make we joy now in this fest\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePoston: Jesus Christ the Apple Tree\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreston: There is no rose\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSwayne: Magnificat\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKennedy: A Spotless Rose\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWalton: All this time\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWeir: Drop down, ye heavens, from above (arr.
