A traditional musical celebration of Christmas. Songs, tunes and carols related to Christmas, originating from England, Europe and America. Song notes provide information of provenance. Belshazzar's Feast are Paul Sartin (vocals, fiddle, oboe and cor anglais) and Paul Hutchinson (accordion). Both have classical and traditional musical backgrounds which are evident here and they have a fine reputation for entertaining as well as unusual and skillful arrangements.
Hutchinson formed the highly influential Push and Pull Dance Band and now spends much time on community concerts and teaching. Sartin plays with Bellowhead and Faustus, teaches, conducts and dabbles in academia when bored (Oxford and Newcastle). Guest musicians: Pete Flood, percussion and Brendan Kelly, bass clarinet and Jennifer Bailey, voice.
