New Christmas songs needn’t upset traditionalists. Coffee Shop to Cathedral comprises 20 carols by Euan Tyler Moseley, offering plenty of opportunities for those who wish to try part-singing, though they can be sung in unison. Linguistically they range from Latin - “Veni Creator Spiritus” - to the street talk of contemporary New York. Musically they cover the grund from simple lullabies via quasi-medieval chant to blues and gospel. Time signatures such as 54 and 74 add challenges to exercise young musicians.
