Description:
Angels We Have Heard on High is one of America's most beloved carols. It comes to us from the French countryside where it emerged anonymously as a macaronic carol (that is, with a text a melange of Latin and vernacular French,) probably in the 1700s, called Les angel dans nos campagnes. Jackson Berkey's arrangement is strikingly individual, with its particular non-strophic handling of the text.
