Includes classic Christmas songs: 1 Now Stands Yule at the Snowy Gate, 2 Now is Christmas Coming, 3 O'ver Hill and Dale, 4 We Ask for Nothing Rich or Rare, 5 The Shining Snows. Timo Lehtovaara's new arrangements for mixed choir take a new look at Sibelius's melodies.

The aim has been to find a new, choral way of interpreting Sibelius's music. The standard SATB arrangement of "We ask for Nothing Rich or Rare", as approved by the composer, is included in this publication as well.
