Christmas at Christ Church 2

Music at Oxford’s famous annual celebration of Christmas music and carols in the atmospheric surroundings of Christ Church Cathedral combines a popular mix of seasonal nostalgia and festive cheer. Under the expert direction of Steven Grahl, the choir will take us on a musical journey through Christmases past and present, punctuated by readings from the creators of theatre company Box Tale Soup: the wonderful actors Antonia Christophers and Noel Byrne. Early booking is essential as these concerts always sell out quickly!

This concert will also take place on Wednesday 14 December. Please visit Christmas at Christ Church 1 to book for the Wednesday performance.

About the artist

Christ Church Cathedral Choir is revered for the vibrancy of its sound and its artistic flexibility, performing early and contemporary music with equal skill. Over the years the choir has provided a perfect platform for singers to progress to other award-winning choral groups such as the BBC Singers, The Sixteen, The King’s Singers, The Tallis Scholars and The Cardinall’s Musick as well as to solo careers in oratorio, opera and musical theatre.

The choir is regularly involved in broadcasts of Evensong and other key services and concerts, and is often heard performing theme tunes and incidental music for TV dramas and films. The Family Christmas Concert is an annual concert that is enjoyed by many and is a firm fixture in the choir’s diary.
