Keraulaphone - thanks for this: does Truro (or any of these, come to that) do their own streaming, not via youtube?

Services can be viewed on the cathedral’s website, where there is a link to the Order of Service:

https://www.trurocathedral.org.uk/whats-on/advent-sunday-sun-28-nov-2021-06-00-pm

Another link takes you to the cathedral’s YouTube channel, where some other webcasts are available. Most of the webcast Sunday services are available for one week only.

We used to use Soundcloud for audio-only services, but YT is more easily accessible for most people. Trinity, for example, still use YT for their audio-only Evensongs on Tuesdays and Thursdays, as well as for their audio-video webcasts on Sundays.

Incidentally, Canterbury’s was toplines only due to covid. Fantastic of them all to keep going!

I was quite overwhelmed when I (almost accidentally) came across so many.

New Coll Ox tops.

[ardcarp]

Yes, NCO very good...but what a change in style from the Higginbottm days!

[Nick Armstrong]

New Coll Ox tops.

Hmmm I thought it reinforced how very good SJC were yesterday…

Indeed

[Keraulophone]

what a change in style from the Higginbottm days!

I’m not sure there has been such a big change. The vibrato in the senior boys’ voices is still there, but at a much less distracting level, eg in Byrd’s Rorate coeli. It now colours the sound without dominating it. In terms of direction, I’d say the current incumbent is similar to his predecessor, and that’s no bad thing.
