Adeste Fideles and the Coventry Carol
Remember how I said I like my carols very traditional? It doesn’t get much more traditional than this. Enjoy this afternoon’s carols. I tried to find the version of Adeste Fideles that I have by the Irish Tenors, but no luck, but this version certainly fits the bill, even if it is sung all in English without the Latin:
And I’ve also enjoyed The Coventry Carol from a compilation album, A Very Special Christmas, I bought years ago. I didn’t grow up with this song, but love it anyway:

I love the carols from Kings on Christmas Eve -the solo intro to Once in royal always sends shivers down my spine -so beautiful!

hope this link works, it is the Christchurch Cathedral Dublin choir singing Adeste Fideles. Brings back memories as we always sang the latin version at school!
