Crouch End Festival Chorus

Crouch End Festival Chorus (CEFC) is a symphonic choir based in Crouch End, a northern suburb of London. CEFC was formed in 1984 by John Gregson and David Temple, who remains the choir's conductor. Unlike other large symphony choirs the chorus is independent, promoting its own concerts of choral and choral-orchestral music in venues including the Barbican and the South Bank Centre as well as smaller venues in North London and elsewhere. Its repertoire spans the entire history of Western choral music. It has commissioned works by composers including John Woolrich, Joby Talbot, Howard Haigh, Orlando Gough, David Bedford, Paul Patterson, Robert Hugill, Simon Bainbridge, Sally Beamish and Ian Lawrence. more »

Behold, a silly tender babe,
In freezing winter night,
In homely manger trembling lies.
Alas, a piteous sight!
The inns are full no man will yield
This little pilgrim bed.
But forced he is with silly beasts
In crib to shroud his head.
This stable is a Prince's court,
This crib his chair of State
The beasts are parcel of his pomp,
The wooden dish his plate.
The persons in that poor attire
His royal liveries wear
The Prince himself is come from heaven
This pomp is prized there.
With joy approach, O Christian wight,
Do homage to thy King,
And highly praise his humble pomp,
wich he from Heaven doth bring.
