2) World Carols for Choirs (OUP)
Copies were available on the day, and were on sale afterwards at a discount price. They contained familiar and unfamiliar carols, from the straightforward to the challenging, designed to appeal to singers of all levels of experience.
The day ended with a short service led by the Revd Canon Tim Wimbush, after which participants could attend a short organ recital in Magdalen College Chapel, followed by Evensong.
