OM 'A CEREMONY OF CAROLS'
Benjamin Britten komponerede ’A Ceremony of Carols’ i april 1942 på Atlanten under en rejse fra USA til England på et svensk fragtskib. Britten var på vej hjem til England efter tre år i USA under 2. verdenskrig. Under en kort landgang i Nova Scotia, besøgte Britten en boghandel og fandt 'The English Galaxy of Shorter Poems', en samling engelske middelalderdigte fra det 14. til det 16. århundrede. Disse tekster dannede grundlag for de elleve satser i ’A Ceremony of Carols’, hvor Britten smukt knytter middelalderdigtenes sprog ind i sit musikalske univers.

Korets aktiviteter spænder vidt, fra større koncertprojekter til udlandsturnéer og udvekslingssamarbejder med andre dygtige kor.

ABOUT 'A CEREMONY OF CAROLS'
Benjamin Britten composed 'A Ceremony of Carols' in April 1942 on the Atlantic during a journey from USA to England on a Swedish freighter. Britten was on his way home to England after three years in USA during World War II. During a brief landing in Nova Scotia, Britten visited a bookstore and found 'The English Galaxy of Shorter Poems', a collection of medieval English poems from the 14th to 16th centuries. These texts formed the basis for the eleven movements in 'A Ceremony of Carols', where Britten beautifully links the language of the medieval poems into his musical universe.
