| The Nativity of Christ is one of the greatest Christian feasts, which announces the great mystery of the Incarnation of the Son of God – the Saviour of the world. The angelic hymn «Glory to God in the highest¾» resounds with a particular solemnity. Other hymns are also imbued with festive exultation.
Recorded in the second part of the CD are carols – old folk songs, which are traditionally sung at Christmastide with the wishes of riches, well being and good health. Carols, which are characterized by the naive simplicity of words, the warm and heartfelt music, are becoming increasingly popular.
