Annie Lennox will reissue her solo album ‘A Christmas Cornucopia’
Iconic pop artist Annie Lennox has announced she will be releasing a new version of her solo album 'A Christmas Cornucopia' to mark its 10 year anniversary.
The album, which was released back in 2010, will also feature an exciting new track, the 300-year-old ‘Dido’s Lament’, written by English composer Henry Purcell.
“I’m absolutely delighted to be releasing the 10th Anniversary of A Christmas Cornucopia,” Lennox said.
“2020 has been an unprecedented year around the world… The carols on this album represent continuum - harking back to a time before modern technology, climate emergency, global pandemics, pollution, forest destruction, species extinction and all the challenges our world must urgently deal with in terms of crisis in sustainability.
“I hope this recording will at least offer some comfort and nostalgia, but also an awareness that political leaders, religious leaders and everyone around the world must face up to the question of how many more Christmases we have left to spend on this blighted earth.”
I am so incredibly thrilled to announce that on November 20 I will be releasing a very special 10th Anniversary Edition of ‘A Christmas Cornucopia’.https://t.co/qJplwX65xO pic.twitter.com/LVoamwUVrj

The album, which will also have a revamped cover featuring Lennox on a Christmas-themed red background instead of a navy one, will be released on 20 November.
Fans will be able to hear the new track on 10 November and a music video will follow shortly after on 12 November.
