Programme Note
Christmas is coming, and if you’re looking for festive music you will be spoilt for choice. Combine quality choral music and beautiful surroundings with staying close to home by coming to the Epsom Chamber Choir’s early evening concert.
To kindle the Christmas spirit the choir will sing seasonal music old and new, familiar and less so. Enjoy the serenity of Palestrina, the exuberance of Mendelssohn, along with more contemporary Christmas pieces by Rutter, Chilcott and Lauridsen. Join in with some traditional carols to help fill the lovely lofty spaces of St Martin’s church.
