Intricate, evocative, utterly beautiful, ‘A Boy Was Born’ captures the spirit of Christmas. Drawing on the folk traditions that inspired so much of Britten’s work and characterised by his unique musical imagination, the choir of Sheffield Cathedral brings this exquisite theme and variations for Yuletide to life, before joining forces with Ensemble 360 for a celebration of the joys of the season through a variety of well-known classics.
