Christmas from Oxford - Music from Worcester College The dreaming spires of Oxford at Christmas time evoke the timeless appeal of Christmas carols and music. From one of Oxford's finest chapels comes this selection of favourite and familiar carols together with a selection of fine choral pieces for the festive season. The resonant acoustics of Worcester College chapel amply support the voices of men and boys who are accompanied by the organ. The programme opens with the magical sound of a solo treble singing the first verse of Once in royal David's city. The rich sounds of the full choir and organ join in for the second verse and establish a lovely atmosphere of Christmas music from one of England's major musical centres.
