Description: | 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.""Winter's Knight" is a captivating CD by Nox Arcana, released under the MNGS label.
