CD: Hymns for All Seasons

A selection of hymns for the church's year, from Advent to harvest festival, recorded in the churches and chapels of the city of Oxford and in some of the great cathedrals of England. A glorious celebration of the English hymn tradition, with reminders of old favourites from times past, and some familiar and heart-warming tunes and words.
