Released in 1999,
N° 1 Noël is a seasonal-themed collection of songs from
Les Petits Ecoliers Chantants de Bondy. The first release from the group of schoolchildren, aged between eight and ten, features performances of traditional hymns ("Douce Nuit, Sainte Nuit," "Il Est Ne le Divin Enfant"), festive standards ("Noël Blanc"), and classic French favorites ("Bons Baisers de Fort-de-France"). ~ Jon O'Brien
