Wonderful look behind the scenes at the King's College boys choir

Charming documentary about the amazing love, talent, and determination that explain the success of the King's College boys choir.

Here the focus is on the TV coverage (once in 1954, and then 1964-present) -- and there is mention of the previous radio-only version since 1928. (I've got a radio recording from 1951.)

We get to meet former choristers (some now in or near retirement) and visit with the current boys (age 8-13) who board at the prep school. Typical lads with great senses of humour and a true desire to do their best to honour the Christmas tradition. They were all admitted via an audition process at age 7 or 8.

Along with the beautiful Christmas music, we see how the program is put together technically.

A lovely treat to watch during the holidays. Especially for those of us who grew up singing in choirs, or admiring the angelic talent of the King's College boys choir.
