Our Take

The Taverner Consort and director Andrew Parrott have teamed up to deliver a Christmas gift that keeps on giving with their latest offering, "The Promise of Ages." This album is a festive feast for the ears, blending traditional carols with lesser-known gems to create a musical tapestry that is both enchanting and nostalgic.

From the soaring vocals of the ensemble to the delicate instrumentation, every track on this album sparkles with holiday magic. The vocals are pure and ethereal, transporting listeners to a winter wonderland where angels sing and sleigh bells jingle. The instrumental arrangements are intricate and full of surprises, keeping the listener engaged from start to finish.

What sets The Taverner Consort and Andrew Parrott apart from other holiday albums is their attention to detail and commitment to authenticity. Each track is performed with care and precision, bringing a sense of tradition and reverence to the music. This is not your average Christmas album - it's a masterclass in how to do festive music right.
