Jubilate Chamber Choir: A Christmas Vigil

About Jubilate Chamber Choir: A Christmas Vigil

Sacred choral music for the Nativity, including movements from Sergei Rachmaninov’s All-Night Vigil and seasonal reflections by John Tavener

Join Jubilate for A Christmas Vigil, an evening of sacred choral music celebrating the mystery and wonder of the Nativity.

The programme brings together the rich, resonant sound world of Rachmaninov with the distinctive, contemplative music of John Tavener, whose reflections on the Christmas story invite both stillness and joyful anticipation.

From moments of quiet contemplation to music of radiant celebration, this promises to be a beautiful and atmospheric start to the Christmas season.
