In the Bleak Midwinter

This is actually a poem, not a musical composition, but over the years many composers and arrangers have set the poem to music.

In the Bleak Midwinter, Jacob Collier

In the Bleak Midwinter, by Gustav Holst

I had no idea the man who wrote “The Planets” also wrote music to this poem, so it was a bit of a surprise to discover this link between Holst and Jacob Collier just two days before Christmas.
