    The Christmas Story - Words and Music is a 2004 two-disc compilation released on BCI Music, combining traditional Christmas carols with a spoken reading of the Nativity story. The first disc features the St. Paul's Cathedral Choir and Norwich Cathedral Choir performing 24 carols, including "Once in Royal David's City," "O Come All Ye Faithful," and "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing," alongside "O Holy Night" and "Ave Maria" performed by Luciano Pavarotti.

    The second disc opens with James Earl Jones reading the Christmas story from the Gospel of Luke across two chapters, followed by highlights from Handel's Messiah performed by Serge Baudo and the Royal Music College Edinburgh, including "Comfort Ye My People," "For Unto Us a Child Is Born," and the "Hallelujah" chorus.
