Performers
Kyotio Consort
Programme Note
The Kyotio Consort (a small vocal group consisting of Commotio singers) will be presenting their inaugural Christmas concert this December, crammed with brilliant, beautiful, and whimsical, seasonal gems, the first half linked by a single letter! Drawing on our main choir’s more unusual contemporary repertoire, and the very best seasonal choral works of other era, this is a programme that will both delight and surprise.
