The great English composers Ralph Vaughan Williams and Gustav Holst wrote many Christmas choral works and carol harmonizations that continue to enrich our worship services, concerts, and family celebrations each December. Their readily identifiable approach to this music draws on their important work in the folk song revival, and they brought many previously forgotten folk carols into sacred use. These organ arrangements by Douglas E. Wagner turn some of this music into organ solos, with a wealth of preludes, offertories, and postludes.

As musical editor of the 1906 edition of The English Hymnal, the British composer Ralph Vaughan Williams forever changed hymnody both with his stunning original hymn tunes, which are some of the most beloved of the twentieth century and with his arrangements of folk tunes and earlier sacred melodies into hymns. This collection by Douglas E. Wagner celebrates Ralph Vaughan Williams's tremendous contribution to sacred song with a variety of pieces: some based on his original hymn tunes (like SINE NOMINE or DOWN AMPNEY) and some based on tunes that his arrangements made popular (like HYFRYDOL or BRYN CALFARIA).
