Pegasus joined the Friends of Shakespeare’s Globe for their annual Christmas carol concert. It was a heart-warming recital featuring a mixture of Christmas music both old and new, as well as readings by actors from Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre. Pegasus were joined by harpist Valeria Kurbatova from the Royal College of Music, who performed excerpts from Benjamin Britten’s “A Ceremony of Carols” to celebrate 100 years since Britten’s birth.
