Comments and Reviews


Gill Sans SUBS 24th Nov 2024		The notes say that this album was the follow up to the earlier Ago release of the Festival of Lessons and Carols at King's College Chapel on RG 39, which was directed by Boris Ord and released in 1954. This 1959 issue was also issued in stereo (ZRG 5190), having been recorded on the 22nd and 23rd of December 1958. The Capel choir is made up of men and boys from the King's College choir. This video of the Invitatory appears to be correct for this record, though the credited label is Beulah, who may have acquired the rights.
