This superb and very popular
recording was recorded and produced by Gary Cole of Regent Records. It
includes many seasonal favourites such as Handel's 'Hallelujah Chorus' and many
well known carols. The choir is conducted by our Musical Director,
Peter Beaven who arranged many of the items. The recording was made at the
Landmark Arts Centre (formerly known as St Alban's at Teddington
Lock) in June 1997. This venue was chosen for its superb acoustics and Mr
Carlo Curley, the Society's Hon.Patron
accompanies the choir and features in several seasonal solo items.
