We are a mixed-voice choir of around 30 singers, performing a wide variety of secular and sacred "classical"; choral music. We mainly sing a cappella, and tend to focus on lesser-known older works, and modern repertoire, often from living composers. However, this is by no means exclusive! The choir sings three main concerts per year, with a charity carol concert just before Christmas. We are also a sociable bunch, with regular social events and a number of 'spin-off' groups.  less

The words are my own and tell of children playing Their games in The dusty streets (ie of Bethlehem) unaware that a miracle has happened and asking Them to look up to The angels and join Their singing. The performance here is by The Composer's Choir conducted by Daniel Shaw.
