Clive Osgood: Christmas Collection
Britten Sinfonia
Polyphony
Stephen Layton
An enchanting and engaging anthology of Christmas music by Clive Osgood, giving a contemporary twist to ancient and well-loved festive texts including carols from the 16th century collection Piae cantiones. Performed by the critically acclaimed professional choir Polyphony and leading chamber orchestra Britten Sinfonia under the direction of Stephen Layton.
"This is a terrific near-half hour bundle of seasonal goodies. Clive Osgood is very, very good at what he does; and what a treat to hear all of this in such fine sound." - Colin Clarke, Fanfare, 23rd September 2025 (full review here)
