Can anyone help me find this arrangement of Coventry Carol?!

Long shot this - but there was a great carol on Classic FM at about 11.45 this morning - it was an absolutely beautiful and original arrangement of Coventry Carol - never heard anything like it. I got that it was the Christopher Gray and the Truro Choir but didn't hear what the arrangement was - and haven't been able to track it down. Don't suppose anyone happens to know what it was (or where I could find it).

Thanks to anyone who can help - I love Coventry Carol - its my favourite Carol.

Merry Christmas!

Can't help I'm afraid (and normally I listen to classic fm a lot) but am bookmarking because there's an unusual arrangement of Coventry Carol I've been looking for for literally years and years, ever since I sung it in a choir performance when I was younger. I'd started to think it was an original arrangement by the conductor but if someone can help with yours I'd be interested to find out if it's the same one!

If you messaged them they’d probably tell you. 6Music does.

This is from their website, but it doesn’t mention whose arrangement it is...

Could it be the Stopford arrangement?

Or perhaps the Leighton?

Is this it?

Oops, thought it would take you to the track. Search by time and date. It thinks it's Lully, Lulla, Lullay by Philip Stopford.

There's an arrangement on this CD.?

According to the ClassicFM website linked above it is the Philip Stopford arrangement.

The sheet music is available here www.musicroom.com/product/hl08752944/philip-w-j-stopford-lully-lulla-lullay-satb.aspx

That's it! The Philip Stopford arrangement - Thanks @Piggles43 for digging deeper and more successfully than me and to @msmandolin and to everyone else for their efforts. I am eternally grateful - its so beautiful I have it playing now on YouTube. What a lovely end to a terrible year to find this beautiful music thanks to you all.

You're brilliant - have a merry Christmas!
And thanks Mumsnet for providing this brilliant site than enables this to happen!
