Live from York Minster, the largest Gothic cathedral in northern Europe, the Most Revd and Rt Hon Dr John Sentamu, Archbishop of York, celebrates the First Mass of Christmas and gives the homily. Richard Shephard's Mass of the Nativity is sung by the St William's Singers accompanied by the York Young Soloists Orchestra, led by Sophie Lockett and under the direction of the composer. Traditional carols include 'It came upon the midnight clear', 'O little town of Bethlehem' and 'O come all ye faithful.' The readings are Isaiah 52 vv7-10 and John 1 vv1-14. The Organist is York Minster's Assistant Director of Music, David Pipe, and the Producer is Stephen Shipley.
