New Christmas carol for the Queen
A new Christmas carol set in Orkney has been written for the Queen by her official composer. Sir Peter Maxwell Davies has based the carol on a work by his late friend, the renowned Orcadian poet George Mackay Brown.The carol will be sung to the Queen and other members of the Royal Family at a private Christmas service in London.
It will be performed by the choir of the Chapel Royal at St James's Palace, accompanied by just an organ.
