100 Carols for Choirs: Spiral-bound paperback (. . . for Choirs Collections)

Product Information

of Service for a Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols. Orchestral and brass ensemble accompaniments for many of the items are available on hire. Maybe they are my own personal foibles, but apart from that the 100 CfC is generally more useful than the separate volumes. This does simplify matters if you are out carol singing as you only need one book, or if you are trying to sing in procession whilst carrying a library of books. For ease of navigation as you're singing, the verses are in Roman type while the refrains are in italics.

Oxford University Press extended the series with volumes appropriate for other church seasons, such as Lent/Easter. [9] In July 2011, Oxford University Press published the fifth incarnation of the original series, Carols for Choirs 5, edited by composer Bob Chilcott, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the publication of the first volume; it is presented in gold covers.
