Carols from the Quayside

The Singers released their first CD Carols from the Quayside when we were called The St Thomas Singers. The programme comprises seventeen beautiful carols ranging from the thirteenth to the twentieth centuries and was recorded in the warm acoustic of All Saints Church on Newcastle’s historic Quayside.

The CD is currently unavailable but selected remastered tracks will shortly be downloadable from our online store.
