The Sixteen at Christmas at SJE Arts Oxford

About The Sixteen at Christmas at SJE Arts Oxford

The Sixteen, directed by Harry Christophers, return to SJE with their 2022 Christmas programme.

The Sixteen returns for their Christmas concert at SJE Arts with a feast of carols and seasonal choral music.

Capturing the joy and sincerity of the festive season, The Sixteen contrast much-loved modern classics, including Gabriel Jackson’s The Christ-child and Cecilia McDowall’s Brightest Star, with the gorgeous Renaissance sounds of Palestrina’s Videntes stellam Magi and Sheppard’s Reges Tharsis.

For fans of the more traditional, the programme has old favourites like Past Three O’Clock and Angels, From the Realms of Glory.

The perfect way to start your Christmas celebrations.
