IT promises a carol service for your couch.

Winchester Cathedral Choir have released their first Christmas CD for a number of years.

Featuring the boy and girl choristers and lay clerks, directed by Andrew Lumsden, and accompanied by Simon Bell, all of the musicians of Winchester Cathedral’s highly acclaimed music department have come together.

The CD features a selection of carols, new and old, well known and less commonly heard, just in time for Christmas.

There’s everything from Once in Royal David’s City to O Come All Ye Faithful and from The Angel Gabriel to Tomorrow Shall Be My Dancing.

The CD is available priced £9.99 from the online Cathedral shop at winchester-cathedral.org.uk/shop.
