It was recorded on 5th December 2010 in the Harvey Nichols Espresso Bar in Leeds' magnificent Victoria Quarter in the first of St Peter's Singers' now-traditional Sunday evening carol performances there.
The choir is directed by Dr Simon Lindley, its Music Director since the Singers' formation in June 1977.
