Seasonal pieces for a cosy wintertide
Under the hot summer sun The Choir of Holloway has been recording seasonal winter and Christmas songs this month by the composer and pianist Ola Gjeilo. Destined to be a release from Decca Classics this December, the playlist features Ola’s arrangements of well-known traditional carols as well as some of his original compositions for choir, piano and strings (the superb 12 Ensemble), all conducted by Rupert Gough. The album is the follow-up to Ola’s first Decca album.
This summer the choir will give concerts in France. See the details here.
