By Trillis
Format:Audio CD
This CD contains a huge selection of wonderful Christmas music. Were it not for problems with the sound levels, I would definitely give it 5 stars. The issue is that parts of the recording are so quiet the volume has to be turned up almost to maximum to be heard (eg the opening of 'Once in Royal..'), and then turned back down again to stop your eardrums being burst when verse 2 starts. Throughout the CD you are constantly turning the volume up and down - sometimes within the same song. I listen to, and sing, a lot of choral music so appreciate the difference in sound levels when performing 'live', however the quiet bits still need to be audible! It is frustrating and does spoil what would otherwise be an excellent CD.
I have played the CD on a standalone CD player/amp, a midi hi-fi system and the car CD player, and have the same problem on each. I bought a different Carols from Kings compilation at the same time and both CDs suffer from this problem.

Carols CDs 16 Dec 2010
Format:Audio CD
Carols beautifully sung by the choir of King's College Cambridge and 2 CDs at a price that would have been cheap for 1! Excellent value .

Format:Audio CD
The rather scant booklet (8 pages, if you count generously) says the recordings were made in the chapel of King's College -- however, the recordings portray very little ambiance, and certainly give no hint of being made in such a large space. Indeed, the choir seems to be squashed into almost no depth. I was also a bit disappointed that some of the carols did not have a fuller sound. Overall I give a middling rating (neither a positive nor a negative recommendation) -- this CD is certainly better than "Essential Carols" which I unfortunately bought too.

A wide selection of songs and Christmas music. Excellent to create a festive atmosphere at the end of the year around the Christmas tree.

Loving the music, dissapointed with the recording
The music in itself is awesome, but I was dissapointed with the sound quality of the CD. The sound was muted and flat. I recommend buying another recording.
