2023 Westminster Readings and Carols is a wrap! Music by Paul Mealor James Whitbourn Dan Forrest were among the highlights! A thrill to have Levi Hernandez '99 sing the Mealor "Coronation Kyrie " with the Westminster Choir !

I don’t want to close 2023 without sharing “Tribute to Abdelwahab” with the stunning voice of Fatma Said , with whom I shared a wonderful concert this year at the Berlin Konzerthaus in March. Enjoy! 🎶 Now available on #Spotify 🔗 bit.ly/Tributetoabdel…

Always a jolly time and a revelation. There are so many new carols out there and we have a stunning mix this afternoon BBC Radio 3 with the BBC Singers at King John’s one time HQ, Temple Church in the old City. I’m there and Penny Gore has lots more great music, all from 2.
