There was a similar thread that I had to resist the urge to necrobump. Just yesterday I finally got down to brass tacks and sought out a version of this seasonal piece I could really enjoy. I greatly prefer a cappella versions to the more orchestrated or differently arranged ones, so that's what I was after. I ended up stuck between two, so I got them both. These are the albums that contain my choices:
 
En la Fete de Noel - O Holy Night - la Petite Bande de Montreal (Naxos)
A Festival of Carols - Robert Shaw Chorale (RCA)
 
I really love these two and I'm glad I didn't choose just one. Of course there are a lot more such recordings out there, and I'd love to explore them. So which ones do you folks like?

Its not a long recording, but the version from the Home Alone soundtrack is nice with the children choir.
