'A Lullaby Carol: Christmas from Christ Church' is directed by Steven Grahl, accompanied by Benjamin Sheen. The album celebrates the choir’s musical heritage, particularly from the 20th and 21st centuries. Highlights include “Make we joy now in this fest” and “All this time” by Sir William Walton, one of Christ Church’s most famous alumni, and Simon Preston’s “There is no rose”. There are also two settings by former Organists of Christ Church: Stephen Darlington’s arrangement of “Silent Night”, and his successor Steven Grahl’s setting of “O nata lux”.
