Wednesday 10th December at 7.30pm. Recitals @ St Michael’s. Our own Choir of St. Michael’s, Mount Dinham, conducted by Alex West, presents a programme of beautiful and atmospheric Advent and Christmas music in a candlelit setting. An unmissable end to 2014!

The first half will explore Advent from Adam lay y-bounden and Gabriel’s Message to Joy to the World, with audience participation!

After Seasonal refreshments, the second half will open with the splendid Fantasia on Christmas Carols by Ralph Vaughan Williams. Written in 1912 for the Three Choirs Festival at Hereford, it features several well-known carols collected in southern England by Vaughan Williams and Cecil Sharp.  Then we’ll Ding dong merrily, Sing of a Maiden, In dulci jubilo, join with Shepherds and Kings and wish you a Merry Christmas.
