New Season (2)
My choir, London Concord Singers, has started rehearsing for our Christmas Concert. The programme is an interesting mix of Advent and Christmas pieces including Martin Dalby's Laudate Dominum, Kenneth Leighton's What live is this of Thee and Gabriel Jackson's Salus Aeterna. Also in the programme is Villette's Hymne a la Vierge, Rachmaninov's Concerto for Choir and Stanford's lovely, but rarely performed And I saw another Angel. We are also including a group of 5 Christmas pieces by Sir Arthur Sullivan.
