Ottawa choir, The Stairwell Carollers, perform Dans cette étable - a French traditional carol arranged by Stairwell Caroller Director, Pierre Massie. A beautiful and delicate rendition of the popular carol, it is a favourite of the choir.
I love the way the sopranos voices lift gently in the higher parts.
The ending is a bit of a trademark for Pierre. I call it "Tierce de Pierre Massie" (Tierce de Picardie)
This version of Dans cette étable is on our “Laudemus cum armonia” CD - available on our website and at our concerts. All net proceeds benefit charities in the Ottawa/Outaouais region.
Our CDs make a great gift for that Choral music lover who has everything - any time of the year!
