Amazon.co.uk Review
The Mormon Tabernacle Choir sets the tone for what Christmas albums should sound like, and Joy to the World upholds their exacting standard of excellence. Rereleased from two concerts recorded in 1970 and 1977 and repacked with three bonus tracks, this collection is as perfect as it gets, thanks to pristine production, gorgeous vocal arrangements, and stately accompaniment by the Philadelphia Brass Ensemble, the Philadelphia Orchestra and the Columbia Symphony Orchestra. This record will set the mood for revelling, both with more contemporary carols such as "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas", and "The Christmas Song" and sacred numbers such as Handel's "Hallelujah Chorus" and "O Holy Night". Joy to the World qualifies as a truly essential yuletide album. --Jaan Uhelszki
