Description

The year was 1983, digital recording for album production was relatively new, and a record company named PRO ARTE contracted with The American Boychoir to produce two albums: an Americana Album and a recording of Britten's Ceremony of Carols. Here is the Americana album. Anyone have the Britten album from the same year?

This was the first American Boychoir album I owned. On cassette. I played it non-stop on my Walk-man during Christmas break of 1985.

So glad this is available!

Thank you, Tom Heard ‘83
