Christmas Carols and Festive Music

As we are unable to perform our traditional carol service nor a Christmas concert here are previously unreleased recordings from past years.  A wide range of congregational carols and choir performances is being added to this page on a daily basis, so please revisit.
Make sure you scroll to the bottom as there are two tables.

You are free to use the individual recordings for events or services, but please do not share the whole playlist as we are releasing the recordings as part of a carol advent calendar and some are not yet in the public domain.
