Hi all,
As we are nearing Christmas, I wondered if anyone was interested in a recording I did with the BBC (sss!...) in 1985 with their radiophonic workshop. Broadcast on Radio 1 at Christmas and won Sony awards apparently. My part was the Christmas Carol "It Came Upon a Midnight Clear".
It was an interesting thing for me at the time (1985) when I recorded the choirboy tracks for this project. All tracks were my voice.
If you want to skip to my part, it is in the last 7 minutes or so... It is quite an interesting 30 minute piece in total. 12 or 16 Multitrack which at the time meant they had to park a large truck outside the studio in Maida Vale London for an additional 6 or 8 tracks capability (our smartphones can probably handle 100s of tracks now...). The carol is after the birth of the baby - 4 mins from end...

Let me know what you think. 38 years ago now! I was UK Choirboy of the Year in 1985...
