Made up of eleven movements, diversity of sound is inherent in Britten’s A Ceremony of Carols. Employing several different key signatures, rhythmic tempos and collaborations between the choir and the harp, it was remarkable to hear the choir’s musicality and command over their overall sound. The most telling part of the performance was Britten’s eighth movement. Combining great leaps in the music with gradual crescendos, plus repeated trills on the harp, the choir produced a haunting sound that contrasted with the bright, often playful energy of the movements before. Distinct from the rest of the piece, it was incredible to hear such young boys have control over the quality, sound and personality of their voices.
