Fleecy Care Carol

As Master of the Queens Music, Sir Peter Maxwell Davies has written a new carol for Her Majesty the Queen each Christmas since his appointment to the role in 2004. Fleecy Care Carol, written for Christmas 2010, is the seventh in the Schott Royal Collection series. First performed in St. James’s palace by the choir of the Chapel Royal for the 2010 Christmas period and broadcast on Classic FM, Fleecy Care Carol is a short, effective and straightforward setting of an English folk poem, perfect for amateur choirs looking for new repertoire.
