Book now for Chandos' star-themed Christmas concert on Thursday 5 December
As the nights draw in, let Chandos Chamber Choir transport you to the heavens for a carefully selected programme of choral music centred around the theme of stars. Our repertoire combines sacred and secular music, ranging from Monteverdi and Victoria to Cecilia McDowall and Eriks Ešenvalds.

Claudio Monteverdi (1567-1643) and Tomás Luis de Victoria (1548-1611)
Our programme has a strong Christmas theme, featuring the journeys of the Three Kings and the shepherds to Bethlehem, and also celebrates broader references to the stars. Perhaps the most striking of our pieces is Ešenvalds’ Stars, which may have you wondering if we have enough wine glasses left for our interval refreshments.
