We welcome back The Sixteen – one of the UK’s favourite choral groups – with a festive programme of a-capella choral music from the 12th century to the present day. Capturing both the joy and the sincerity of Christmas, traditional festive favourites sit alongside lesser-known medieval carols and modern classics such as Lauridsen’s O Magnum Mysterium. This concert will really give you that festive feeling!
