A solo chorister singing Once in Royal David's City begins the traditional celebration of Christmas from the Chapel of King's College, Cambridge. The world-famous choir, directed by Stephen Cleobury, sings glorious and well-loved carols, including In Dulci Jubilo, Away in a Manger, Dormi Jesu, O Holy Night and O Come All Ye Faithful. The story of the Nativity is told in the familiar words of the King James Bible, along with Christmas poems by Elizabeth Jennings, Thomas Merton and Christina Rossetti.
