For Advent, Dymphna's Well will be doing a Lessons and Carols of a sort in preparation for Christmas. Today's carol precedes the official start of Advent, but I thought we needed a head start and a reminder of the coming season.
This video features the Choir of King's College, Cambridge Choir in this haunting melody. Also called The Basque Carol, its words speak of the Annunciation of the birth of Christ to the Blessed Virgin.

i knew your music monday is great! thanks!
Thanks! I love this carol!
That carol is just beautiful and Kings College Choir is really good. I'm glad you're doing this approach for Advent and I'm looking forward to see what else you'll be offering.
Thanks, Barbara! Some of the Music Mondays vids I wanted to put up, would only play on YouTube and not on a blog, so I had to find a proper substitute. Kings College Choir certainly fits the bill!
Wonderful way to begin the Advent season. Thank you Dymphna.
You're welcome, Joann.
