About this concert
For many people a firm fixture of the festive period, the combination of Steeleye Span?s Maddy Prior and The Carnival Band has offered a unique take on timeless Christmas music ever since they first came together in 1984. The pairing resulted not only in the acclaimed album Carols & Capers and many more, but a concert experience like no other. To mark the fortieth anniversary of their artistic relationship, Maddy and The CB will tour the UK in what will be not only a celebration but also a farewell, the last time they will undertake such an outing. Together they will mix ancient and modern instruments and rich vocal harmony with a refreshing cavalier attitude and plenty of humour - putting their inimitable stamp on a range of familiar and not-so-familiar festive fare. This guarantees to be a Christmas Party to remember - a celebration of a unique partnership.
