Carols & Capers
Following the hugely popular 2008 Christmas tour, Maddy Prior and the Carnival Band will be coming together once more during the festive season with their unique celebratory show, Carols & Capers.
Maddy and the boys put their unique stamp on a range of familiar (and not-so-familiar) festive material, played on Renaissance and modern instruments. Favorites such as The Holly and the Ivy and I Saw Three Ships rub shoulders with secular carols like The Boar’s Head and dance tunes like Old Joe Clark, whilst also exploring some new and exotic directions, mixing ancient, modern and ethnic instrumentation with a refreshingly cavalier attitude and plenty of humour.

Maddy’s voice is clear as a bell. It actually sounds as if there’s a celebration going on
