The Choir of Magdalen College

Program: #95-29🎁   Air Date: Jul 17, 1995

00:00

Founded in 1480, this great ensemble is now directed by William Ives, who will be our guest on this program. Aside from a century-and-a-half view of the English anthem, we will hear some music from the choir's Spring tradition of singing at sunrise from the main tower: a scene that is acted out in the film, "Shadowlands," for which the choir provided the music.
