HARK! THE GLAD SOUND OF CORNISH CAROLS

HARK! THE GLAD SOUND OF CORNISH CAROLS A record of carols sung throughout Cornwall, in a variety of locations: church, pub, chapel, on the street, in people’s houses and at special occasions such as the Bodmin Wassail, Picrous Eve and St Just Feast – to show how embedded these carols are in their communities. ­The book contains two CDs as well as scores and words, the background to the carols, the composers and reminiscences of people who sang them. By Hilary Coleman and Sally Burley.

‘Cornish Carols are unique and to have a publication that brings together the essence of that is marvellous. The hours and miles will have been well worth it I am sure. Congratulations to Sally and Hilary for their achievement’ - Roger Gool (Leader of Padstow Carollers)
