John Rutter (b. 24 September 1945) is a well-known and prolific choral conductor, composer, and arranger, especially of Christmas carols.
Bah! Humbug!
If I may be forgiven the comparison, John Rutter is the Andrea Bocelli of classical choral music: many people adore his work, and there are (probably not so) many who loathe it. – Raymond Tuttle, at http://www.classical.net
While many will go all aflutter
When hearing an anthem by Rutter,
I express how I feel
With a virulent spiel
In my petulant seasonal splutter.
