Описание к видео ROYAL CHORAL SOCIETY: In the Bleak Midwinter – words Christina Rossetti, music Gustav Holst

The Royal Choral Society performs one of the best-loved Christmas carols, 'In the Bleak Midwinter’ by Christina Rossetti, in its evocative setting by British composer Gustav Holst. The poem was written at the behest of the editor of Scribner’s Monthly for the January edition in 1872, and therefore shares its 150th aniversary with the choir, which celebrated its own 150th on 8 May 2022.

The carol was recorded at the church of St Giles, Cripplegate, in the City of London, in February 2022, under the baton of Richard Cooke, the choir's Music Director.
