‘The Best Classical CDs for Christmas’
Stephen Layton, too, has a first-rate ensemble in the choir of Trinity College, Cambridge, for “Yulefest!”, starting with a saucy, swingy “Jingle Bells”.   There’s more decorum elsewhere (“Silent Night”, “Away in a Manger”), but it’s a treat to hear Trinity letting its hair down in a soupy “Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas”.
