BBC - Carols from King's (2021)
The candlelit, fan-vaulted Chapel of King's College, Cambridge is the stunning setting for this much anticipated annual celebration of the Christmas story. The service of music, readings and prayer begins in the time-honoured way as a solo boy chorister sings the first verse of Once in Royal David's City. The world-famous choir, directed by Daniel Hyde, sings carols old and new, including Silent Night (arr. John Rutter), The Holly and the Ivy (arr. June Nixon), In the Stillness (Sally Beamish) and the Sussex Carol (arr. Philip Ledger). The choir leads the congregation in popular carols, including O Come All Ye Faithful, While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks by Night and Hark! the Herald Angels Sing, and the service will be introduced by the Dean, the Revd Dr Stephen Cherry. The story of the Nativity is read by members of King's College in the words of the King James Bible and in poems by Charles Causley and Theresa Lola.
