This chorale has a couple of public-broadcasting pledge specials circulating...syndicated, iirc, rather than from PBS (I'm not at the office yet to doublecheck quickly).
I first encountered this Belgian group back in 2006 on the outrageous website LastChristmas.com which has been collecting cover versions of the old Wham! pop holiday tune "Last Christmas" for the past five years or so. The chorale's cover is one of the most beautiful renditions of that sad holiday heartbreak tune I've ever heard.
Patricia Abbott is the author of more than 125 stories that have appeared online, in print journals and in various anthologies. She is the author of two print novels CONCRETE ANGEL (2015) and SHOT IN DETROIT (2016)(Polis Books). CONCRETE ANGEL was nominated for an Anthony and Macavity Award in 2016. SHOT IN DETROIT was nominated for an Edgar Award and an Anthony Award in 2017. A collection of her stories I BRING SORROW AND OTHER STORIES OF TRANSGRESSION will appear in 2018.
She also authored two ebooks, MONKEY JUSTICE and HOME INVASION and co-edited DISCOUNT NOIR. She won a Derringer award for her story "My Hero." She lives outside Detroit.
