Carnival of Carols (SOLD OUT)
About
Seasonal music from one of the UK’s best-loved early music and folk bands. From Medieval England to ‘le jazz cool’ via Latin rhythms and Cajun beats, The Carnival Band blend the spirit of Christmas with the spirit of celebration the world over to create a delicious Yuletide cocktail. Well-known for their recordings with Maddy Prior, The Carnival Band perform here in their own right, playing a cornucopia of instruments including, bagpipes, cittern, shawm, curtal and fiddle. Their range is breathtaking - medieval lyrics, English and European folk carols, contemporary comedy and reflections on the season of goodwill are delivered in rich vocal harmony. Guaranteed to be an evening of consummate musicianship laced with good humour. The band's rapport with the audience will charm even the most Scrooge-like heart.
'Thoroughly enjoyable' (Birmingham Post)
