The jaunty, irregular 5/8 meter of this carol conjures up the excitement and joyfulness of the approaching Christmas season.

The six stanza English poem, with exclamatory Latin interjections, is a cunning acrostic spelling out the first names of the lyricist and his family.

Three Angels was first performed in Aldeburgh in 2010, and was part of the Carols from King’s broadcast on BBC Two, Christmas Eve 2012.
