Piano solos on gramophone records
Introduced by CLAIRE CHOVIL
Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols
The Christmas Eve Carol Service at King's College, Cambridge, is primarily intended to be a gift to the City of Cambridge. A hmited number of seats are reserved for those connected with the College; the remainder are kept for those who are prepared to queue on Christmas Eve, as this has been found to be the fairest system. The College therefore much regrets that no tickets are available to the general public in advance.
