David WillcocksAbout
The earliest 15th century carols were based on simple folk melodies, with texts added representing Christmas ideas, but it was a long gap then until the Victorians, followed shortly by great 20th Century composers (Vaughan Williams, Holst etc), who developed the wonderful catalogue of choral enjoyment that we enjoy here today.
