    As winter falls and the holiday season is upon us, our popular Christmas series will transport you (in spirit!) from the hubub of today's world to the sublime surroundings of a Great English Church, as The Boston Cecilia recreates a lovely tradition borrowed from English chapels. Lessons and Carols tells the story of the season in a word and music. Carols and anthems from European traditions--ancient and modern.

    Works by Byrd, Palestrina, Loquebantur, Ord, Vaughan Williams, Walton, Howells, a set of haunting Carols by the contemporary John Tavener, and a strring setting of Mary's great hymn, Magnificat, by Gerald Finzi.
