An English Christmas - AMP225 | Music

Christmas as celebrated in England is a relatively new tradition dating from the time of Queen Victoria. Her husband Prince Albert was from Germany and he brought many German Christmas traditions with him, including the Christmas tree and Christmas cards, and even carols such as Hark, the Herald Angels Sing. Philip Sparke has however used a varied selection of English melodies to arrange into his "Festival of Carols". The choir parts are seperately available.

Sussex Carol - In the Bleak Mid-Winter - God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen - Once in Royal David's City - I Saw Three Ships - O Come, All Ye Faithful
