 About this recording
Cantores Episcopi is one of the country's longest-running close-harmony groups. Based in Winchester College, its members usually go on to music or choral scholarships at the Oxford and Cambridge colleges. The group reached its 21st birthday in 1993, and that year included four young men destined to become successful professional singers. This was the group's first foray into the world of CDs.

Each Christmas since the group's foundation, it has given a concert just before the Christmas holiday at which the audience is offered mince pies baked by the members in between taking end-of-term exams. This has become known as the 'mince pies concert': this disc features a typical programme, beginning and ending with seasonal music.
