A return of the much-loved Christmas concert for all the family, under the baton of the inimitable Hilary Davan Wetton. The annual “carol concert with bells on” (in the words of The Guardian) features Christmas music by Vaughan Williams’s in this, the composer’s 150th anniversary year, including the evocative Fantasia on Christmas Carols.
The City of London Choir (“palpable heart” and "terrific intensity of tone" - Daily Telegraph) performs classic carols, favourites old and new, with plenty of audience participation. A highlight of the festive season for all the family.
