Description:
This lively carol was commissioned in 2005 by Lichfield Cathedral Special Choir (now called the Cathedral Chorus) to celebrate the birth of the daughters of the two cathedral organists at that time. The words were specially written by Tony Barnard, the then Canon Chancellor at Lichfield, and a member of the choir. This tuneful carol for mixed voices (no divisi) and organ sways and dances, reflecting the colourful imagery of Tony Barnard's text. The main tune itself will stay in the head of both singers and audience from the moment it is first heard and so is sure to be a popular addition to the Christmas choral repertoire.
