Mon, 20 Dec 2004 Christmas 04 A Christmas Present from Polyphony Polyphony with City of London Sinfonia Stephen Layton LP, Hyperion A treat for non-commercial carol lovers here: an assortment that does include well-known carols such as Silent Night, and Away in a Manger, but mostly consists of less-known Christmas carols. These include O Morgenstern, The Sussex Mummer's Carol, Shepherd's Pipe Carol, and quite a few others. Polyphony have a nice, rich sound and it is well recorded. Bath Abbey Girl's Choir sings Christmas Carols Marcus Sealy, Ruth Faber, Peter King LP, Priory This is especially nice when the girls hit the descants and high notes generally. There is quite a range here, twenty-four tracks, which include both well-known and lesser-known carols. It was nicely recorded by Neil Collier, who runs Priory and who talked to us, here at Mstation, a couple of years ago. You can find him on the music page. The Naxos Book of Carols recorded at St Jude on the hill, Hampstead LP, Naxos I'm going to mention this release of last year's again because it was so nice. (Count K) [] permanent link
