About "Ceremony of Carols, Op. 28 : Britten: Ceremony of Carols, Op. 28: Interlude" by Rachel Masters
Britten's harp interlude from 'Ceremony of Carols' is a solo meditation, Rachel Masters plucking crystalline arpeggios that hang like icicles. No voices hereâjust strings and silence, a frozen moment between carols. The tension: stillness as anticipation, the harp's shimmer a held breath before the choir returns.
