The Choristers of St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle

An ideal Christmas release in this Royal Jubillee year, from the Choristers of St George’s Chapel - the Queen’s chapel in Windsor Castle.

A selection of traditional favourites, combined with less well-known carols and Christmas music, sung by the angelic boys’ voices of St George’s Chapel Choir.

Original Christmas music and arrangements for treble voices.

The collection is completed with three seasonal organ solos, played by internationally-renowned organist and Director of Music of St George’s Chapel, Timothy Byram-Wigfield.

A wonderful showcase to demonstrate the art of the boy chorister!

“an excellent Christmas gift for anyone who enjoys beautiful choral singing and appreciates the continuation of old traditions...Sound quality is very good indeed, splendidly capturing, as far as is possible, the ecclesiastical acoustic.” MusicWeb International, November 2012
