This piece is very special to us because it was written by ex-Stairweller, Martin Fairbank.
It is also quite rare and beautiful.
Ottawa choir, The Stairwell Carollers, perform A Christmas Lullaby, composed by Martin Fairbank. Performance at the Stairwell Carollers 40th anniversary concert, “An all Canadian Christmas”.
Buy our CDs and help many Ottawa/Gatineau charities.
The carollers, an a cappella group, formed in 1977 by director Pierre Massie, has earned the distinction of being ranked amongst the best of Ontario choirs in both the 2010 and 2013 Ontario Music Festival Association competition. They are a non-profit organization, who raise funds for local charities through concert, CD and cookbook sales.
Audio: Tom Barnes. Recorded at Knox Presbyterian Church, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, Dec 15th, 2017.
Videographers: Matthieu Brennan, Andrew Mason
