Critical reception

Allmusic editor Alex Henderson found that "Knight presents a warm, welcoming set of Yuletide songs on 2006's A Christmas Celebration. A showcase for the choir Saints Unified Voices (an ensemble assembled and directed by Knight), A Christmas Celebration finds the group backed by light, Quiet Storm-style arrangements on serene versions of both secular and religious classics."[1]
