A Christmas carol: Christmas with Sir James Galway and the Orchestra of St John’s

Sir James and Lady Jeanne Galway

Oxford Town Hall was certainly decked with boughs of holly for last night’s Christmas special. Featuring the twelve-piece Orchestra of St John’s and a carol-singing choir, the scene was set for a cosy evening away from the cold and drizzle outside. Maybe the best way to describe this concert is by comparing it to a festive CD. The performances were of mixed quality: although some were a joy to listen to, others were less gripping and faded into the background.
