Levens Choir will perform a feast of Christmas music at a concert this month in Windermere.
They will be performing Now May We Singen: A Choral Christmas in Carver Uniting Church on December 15 from 3pm.
Led by Gawain Glenton, the choir will pay tribute to the ancient tradition of carolling with a wide range of music, some familiar and others less so.
The concert will feature an uplifting mixture of music from English composers Gustav Holst, Herbert Howells, William Walton, Peter Warlock, David Wilcocks, William Walton and Elizabeth Poston; and three contemporary composers Cecilia McDowall, Alex Bullard and Joanna Forbes L’Estrange.
These will be complemented with longer devotional pieces by American composers – Randall Thompson’s Alleluia, Morten Lauridsen’s O Magnum Mysterium and Eric Whitacre’s Lux Aurumque.
Tickets, at £15, are available from levenschoir.net and on the door (subject to availability). Children and students free.
