Choir of Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge - Carols Contemporary & Medieval - Christmas Music - CD

A typically intriguing and unusual program from the Choir of Gonville & Caius College, Cambridge, combining English works from the twelfth to sixteenth centuries with Christmas works by some of our finest living composers. From the plangent innocence of William Sweeney's The Innumerable Christ-áto the shining antiphony of Diana Burrell's Creator of the Stars of Night, this selection will seduce and enchant. The choral singing combines Polish with verve, and director Geoffrey Webber's meticulous attention to detail is floodlit by the bathing acoustics of St Anne's Cathedral, Belfast.
