Thanks to the legacy of Robert Shaw, Atlanta is rich in choral groups, including several which have gained national distinction. Some of these groups were founded by members of Shaw's Atlanta Symphony Chorus and have survived over the decades to make their own name. The Atlanta Singers, begun 24 years ago, is among the most notable. David Brensinger conducts the Singers, whose repertoire on 'Chantez' includes sacred Renaissance masterworks (Praetorius' 'Psallite,' 'Swete Was The Song the Virgine Soong,' Victoria's 'O Magnum Mysterium,' and 'Es ist ein Ros' entsprungen'), traditional carols ('Il est ne,' 'Wassail Song,' 'Silent Night,' 'Jingle Bells' and 'Deck The Hall'), traditional Spanish carols ('A la nanita nana' and 'Esta noche nace un Nino'), and traditional French carols ('Dans les hombres de la nuit,' the title tune, and 'Entre le boeuf et l'ane gris'). Intricate, classical harmonies perfectly sung by this talented ensemble.
