Christmas Classics at Crystal Palace

Part of the London Mozart Players 2021/22 Season

Add to my Calendar 10-12-2021 19:00 10-12-2021 21:00 36 Christmas Classics at Crystal Palace Whether you love traditional carols, yuletide songs, or just mulled wine and mince pies – this Christmas concert has something for everyone! Full of the music we all turn to at this time of year, this fun and informal concert will be a wonderful opportunity for families and friends to gather at St John’s in SE19 to share the joy and memories that these melodies evoke. Festive favourites Sleigh Ride, The 12 Days of Christmas and The Nutcracker will get us in the Christmas groove, alongside perennial favourites Silent Night, Hark! The Herald Angels Sing, and many more. We also have an exciting première of a newly commissioned seasonal piece by young local composer Georgia Barnes. We love to involve as many musicians as possible in our Christmas concert at St John’s, and after a reduced gathering in 2020 due to Covid, we are pulling out all the stops to bring you a packed programme for 2021 that reflects the extraordinary talent of this wonderful community. The concert includes side-by-side performances with pupils from Rockmount and Cypress Schools, while the Welcome and Hive choirs will dial the choral Christmas cheer up to eleven in a cornucopia of festive fun. It’s never too early to make plans for the festive season, and the London Mozart Players’ annual Christmas concert in SE19 is always a sell-out, so do book early! Dig out your Santa hats and Christmas jumpers and we’ll see you under the church’s magnificent Christmas Tree! St John the Evangelist Church, London DD/MM/YYYY
