Maddy Prior and The Carnival Band St George’s Hall Amid the frantic final moments of the Christmas rush and frenzy, Maddy Prior and The Carnival Band bring an oasis of genteel but uplifting music to the season of goodwill. On the final night of their 2008 tour, their brand of madrigal carols and folksy Christmas songs are a joy to listen to.
And the five-piece band displayed a dazzling array of skills on a plethora of instruments, ancient and modern.
Maddy’s voice is as pure as ever, soaring through the air and adding so much to the a cappella singing of the five male musicians accompanying her.
It’s a seasonal treat for the Bradford audience, and at the end they were all singing along as they do every year.
