Benjamin Britten A Ceremony of Carols ( Op. 28) George Guest; Marisa Robles; St. Johns Cambridge
A Ceremony of Carols Op. 28, is a choral piece by Benjamin Britten, scored for threepart treble chorus, solo voices, and harp. Written for Christmas, it consists of eleven movements, with text from The English Galaxy of Shorter Poems, edited by Gerald Bullett; it is in Middle English. To my ears, this is a marvellous performance under choirmaster and conductor George Guest at St. John s College, Cambridge, recorded in 1965. Marisa Robles harp playing here is a delight.
