Holiday music with a medieval flair. Celebrate the spirit of the season with Nox Arcana and enter an enchanted realm of ghosts, dark angels and winter magic. This musical ghost story follows the path of a mysterious knight as he wanders the ruins of a haunted cathedral set in the mythical Ebonshire forest. The arrangements on this album incorporate acoustic guitars and mandolins to achieve a medieval minstrel sound. Gregorian choirs, pipe organ, chimes, and violin compliment the moody blend of original instrumentals, while guest vocalists perform gothic renditions of traditional holiday carols, including a foreboding version of the lullaby 'Coventry Carol,' and the minstrel's favorite 'Past Time With Good Company.' Review Beautifully dark Christmas hymns with a gothic touch. A classic masterpiece of timelessness. Certainly appropriate for the holiday season! Be prepared to go back in time to a kingdom far far away. — Livid Looking Glass All the enchantment and beauty of traditional classical Christmas music from the dark side. Very evocative of holiness as well as spine chillingly mysterious.— Morbid Outlook I was delighted with the sophisticated elegance of this enchanted realm. I decided to first listen to this CD on a cross-country train ride, I thought it would be fitting. It was gently raining in the Pacific Northwest and as prehistoric landscapes rolled by, I felt I too was like a knight on a quest of lonely tranquility. My favorite track is 'Ebonshire.'
