Christmas Carol
Product Details
Description
The text is from a variety of sources: anonymous carols of the 15th,16th & 17th centuries, Edmund Bolton (1611, "Sweet music, sweeter far..."), the Gloria from the Mass, and a couple of lines from well-loved Anglican hymns.
Selected for the Royal Philharmonic Society’s ‘Encore’ project, this carol will offer some challenge to intermediate choirs, but will add some originality to a carol service or Christmas concert.
