In this upload, our Ottawa choir performs a wonderful original Canadian Christmas carol - The Gower Wassail, composed by Robert Frederick Jones. Andrew Jones, his son, is a tenor in the choir so this piece has a special connection to us.
Audio: Tom Barnes. Recorded at Knox Presbyterian Church, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, Dec 16th, 2016.
Videographers: Gert-Jan van Heuzen, Andrew Mason
