A collection of carols sung live on Christmas Eve and made available as an audio album for the first time. Taken from the BBC’s 2019 Christmas broadcasts, these recordings capture the Choir of King’s College, Cambridge under the direction of Daniel Hyde, performing for his first Christmas at King’s since taking up the post of Director of Music.

Highlights include the premiere performance of the commissioned carol The Angel Gabriel, John Rutter’s Candlelight Carol and the spell-binding Coventry Carol (Lully Lulla) by Kenneth Leighton.

The recordings in this collection are made available at better-than-CD quality and have been specially remastered.
