It came Highly Commended in Westminster School's Carol Competition in 2012, and was the first Highly Commended entry in The Times Carol Competition in 2013. Apologies for some sound distortion - I've tried my best to edit most of it out. The performers are credited at the end of the video. Hope you enjoy, and Merry Christmas!

These diverse pieces share a focus on the natural world. Part one of the concert delights in all things pastoral in a series of anthems, partsongs and folk songs. Part two introduces the ominous note of threats to nature, with Cecilia McDowall’s haunting cantata, The Ice is Listening. Inspired by accounts of seventeenth and eighteenth century frost fairs on the River Thames, this gorgeous work evokes nature’s fragile balance – a theme amplified by Raymond Yiu’s rich song cycle for soprano, The Earth and Every Common Sight, which urgently addresses the peril of climate change. The concert will be conducted by Andrew Griffiths, with Gavin Roberts playing organ and piano and the Soprano, Donna Lennard, performing the song cycle. KCS has been sharing the joy of choral mu...    less

There has been a long tradition of musical excellence at St Laurence’s. The original church, built in the 1880s, had a strong choir of men and boys who took part in the Festival of Britain services in 1951. When the new church was opened in 1968, the musical tradition continued. A new Walker organ was installed in the church, using some pipework from the old organ and Directors of Music have included David Sanger, Professor Roger Wibberley, Paul Dewhurst, Tom Fowkes, Marcus Wibberley, Iain Simcock and Andrew Ibbotson. The current Director of Music is Huw Morgan. Girls were first admitted to the choir some ten years ago, but the choir remains unique in this part of south-east London in that it continues to use only trebles (girls and boys) on the top line. The lower parts are provided by volunteer adults from the local community. Young people receive an excellent musical education, and ...    less

The joins are barely noticeable! The Hubbard Saga was written specially for Sale Festival 2001 and follows the antique antics of the fabulous dog of Old Mother Hubbard. The children's chorus echoes the barking of the dog whilst the adult choir takes us through the story. Then the children -- one by one tell us the story behind the poem itself. The forces are: Children's choir (in 2 parts) Adult choir (SATB) Flute Clarinet String quartet Chorus part http://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/8121318?aff_id=175705 Full score http://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/8121304?aff_id=175705 parts also available for rental at http://www.classicalmusicnow.com/rentalcat.htm  less
