Our 2022 festive Christmas programme is a beautiful collection of music from the 16th century right up to the present day. Capturing the joy and sincerity of the festive season, they contrast much-loved modern classics including Gabriel Jackson’s The Christ-child and Cecilia McDowall’s Brightest Star, with the gorgeous Renaissance sounds of Palestrina’s Videntes stellam Magi and Sheppard’s Reges Tharsis. For fans of the more traditional, the programme has plenty on offer including favourites Past Three O’Clock and Angels, From the Realms of Glory.
