Programme Note
The Lea Singers’ annual Christmas Concert, FestiveLea, is an evening of uplifting singing.
With a selection of well-known carols for audience and choir interspersed with some beautiful (and occasionally silly) numbers for choir, this is the perfect start to your Christmas break.
This year we also welcome Upbeat, a local choir conducted by a close friend of the Leas, Tim Sutton.
We are delighted to be supporting The Harpenden Trust with the proceeds from the raffle.
