The Buffalo News, Mary Kunz Goldman, December 21, 2008
It's funny how new music is so much more palatable when it's sung by a chorus and accompanied by eggnog, or mulled wine, or other libations commonly served up after Lessons and Carols. The excellent a cappella group Musica Intima, described as a "distinctly Canadian ensemble" (whatever that means) starts this set of 19 carols and anthems with a lovely version of "In dulci jubilo." But that medieval melody is answered on the adventurous side by Jonathan Quick's "Angels From Heaven Came," written in two keys and full of all kinds of strange effects. In between is "Jesus Christ the Apple Tree" and modern rethinkings of "The Wexford Carol" and the Basque carol "Gabriel's Message." It will be a bit modern for some tastes -- the harmonies are sometimes so tart that you can taste them. But on the whole, it goes down easy.
