Ho ho ho! What have we here? Alfred Deller & Consort with a cheeky little Christmas album to get you all festive and jolly. A Minstrels Christmas is a delightful romp through yuletide classics, served up with a side of Tudor flair.
From the moment you press play, you'll be transported to a medieval feast, complete with lutes, viols, and angelic vocals courtesy of the legendary Alfred Deller. It's like stepping back in time to a time when minstrels roamed the land, spreading joy and merriment wherever they went.
Tracks like "The Coventry Carol" and "Good King Wenceslas" are given the Deller treatment, with intricate arrangements and a touch of whimsy that will have you tapping your foot and reaching for a goblet of mulled wine.
But it's not all jolly olde English fun and games - there's a darkness lurking beneath the festive cheer. "The Holly and the Ivy" takes on a haunting quality, while "I Saw Three Ships" is given a surprising edge that will leave you questioning whether those sailors were really on a joyous journey.
In conclusion, A Minstrels Christmas is a must-listen for anyone looking to add a bit of olde world charm to their holiday playlist. So grab a mince pie, pour yourself a glass of mead, and let Alfred Deller & Consort serenade you into the Christmas spirit. Verily, I say unto thee - this album doth rocketh! Verdict: 8.0 Merry Christmas, ye merry minstrels!
