I second the James MacMillan recommendation. I love choral music, and he is becoming one of my favorites.As this is the closing days of Advent I wanted to share gift of music with those who appreciate Catholic liturgical music. I only discovered the Scottish composer James MacMillan's Advent Antiphon this week, but cannot stop playing it. It is a deeply spiritual piece of music by a deeply spiritual composer.
Although I am not Catholic, I do sing in a choir. I'll look for this. Thank you.I second the James MacMillan recommendation. I love choral music, and he is becoming one of my favorites.
May you have a very merry (or happy if of more English persuasion) Christmas!
I am Catholic, but will be listening to the Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols on Christmas morning. Sacred music so frequently transcends denominational lines.Although I am not Catholic, I do sing in a choir. I'll look for this. Thank you.
ZEB, I tried two search engines for an Amazon search for this pieces of music. I used each word you suggested. Is there another 'magical' word I could use to find it?Greetings to all members of the forum, may you have a peaceful Christmas and happy walking (or planning thinking about) your Camino in 2016!
Thank you to all who provided advice on appropriate footwear, backpacks, routes, practical footcare, setting realistic walking goals, weather updates. You helped me overcome anxieties, buy the right equipment and enabled me to understand there is no right way to walk the Camino, or as another member of the forum said 'Let Go, Let God'.

You can sample the recording by Capella Nova on Amazon digital music (if you can swallow their tax arrangements for the UK).
Peace to all and long may we learn from walking the Way.
Hi C clearly; thank you so much for going to that effort. His post did give the name 'Capela Nova' so I assume that might be the artist, although nothing came up. I will check all these links, especially the one that indicates 'Antiphon' together with James MacMillan's name. Much appreciated...Hi @movinmaggie ,
I was curious too, so browsed around for awhile. I'll tell you what I think I've learned, but this might be terribly obvious to someone else, or it could be wrong!
Since James MacMillan is the composer, the searches for his music turn up copies of the scores, not performances. For example here:
So, to buy recordings of his music you probably need to search the performers' names. The first link above has links to "Purchase the CD or download from Linn Records http://www.linnrecords.com

I hope this helps.
Because not all of us are Christian and the world is for all humans - think Jews, Muslims, Hindus, and even atheists. What don't you get?don't understand this happy holiday what holidays? Christmas is Christmas is Christmas, it's a commemoration of the birth of Christ Jesus. seems most want to celebrate the trappings and forget the reason for the celebration. A Blessed Nativity of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

As a Christian,I thank you for your Christmas Wishes,and I hope you enjoy any holiday time you get.Not all of us are Christians my friend. To some of us it is only a holiday period. No disrespect. I'm a pagan and celebrated the winter Solstice for instance, but I'm really happy to wish you a happy Christmas! Lets celebrate our differences as we do on Camino and not put lines in the sand we cannot cross.
Much love
Davey
