City University Chamber Choir & Civitas: Christmas Carol Concert

The City University Chamber Choir, comprising talented vocalists from the Department of Music, performs a selection of festive music including carols for choir and audience, conducted by Tim Hooper.

The evening will begin with Christmas chants, performed by City's specialist vocal ensemble Civitas, who are devoted to the performance of the early musics of Eastern and Western Europe, including both plainchant (Latin, Byzantine, and Slavic) and polyphony. Civitas is led by BMus Programme Director Alexander Lingas, also known internationally as the founding Director of the professional vocal ensemble Cappella Romana.

The concert takes place in the beautiful church of St Clement’s, King Square, Finsbury, a five-minute walk from the main university campus on Northampton Square.
