My Kind of Carol

   You voted for your favourite carols. We recorded them for you.

For many of us, hearing the first carols during Advent brings the realisation that Christmas is coming.  That was certainly the feeling of Tablet readers who nominated and voted for their favourite carols last year.

We are now pleased to bring you this beautiful CD featuring the award-winning Exmoor Singers of London singing Tablet readers' Top 10 carols, some that didn't quite make that list plus a selection of more unusual ones, including At the Nativity and Peaceful Was the Night which, as far as we know, have not been commercially recorded before. 

The CD covers the whole Advent season right through to Epiphany, and is accompanied by a booklet containing all the lyrics for the carols.

Tablet readers' Top 10 favourites, in order of popularity:

1. Holy Night
2. In the Bleak Midwinter
3. Once in Royal David's City
4. O Little Town of Bethlehem
5. Coventry Carol
6. It Came Upon the Midnight Clear
7. Good King Wenceslas
8. Christe, Redemptor Omnium
