    Ceremonies of carols: A celebration of Britten and the Baroque

    Friday, 13 December 2024

    Time
    20:00 - 21:30

    Christ Church Cathedral, St Aldates, Oxford
    Benjamin Britten's A Ceremony of Carols, composed in 1942 for upper voices and harp, creates an imagined service of seasonal hymns, songs, and carols from the late Middle Ages, weaving texts that are at times joyful, melancholic, wistful, and longing with music that is profoundly modern in outlook even as it evokes centuries long gone by.
