The Sixteen’s 2023 Christmas programme takes its inspiration from the story at the heart of the season: the nativity. Traditional and modern arrangements of festive favourites, including A Boy was Born in Bethlehem, and There is no rose, mix with the medieval sounds of Hildegard of Bingen and the familiar Renaissance voices of Sheppard, Lobo and Byrd.
A cherished and much-loved fixture on the cultural calendar, The Sixteen at Christmas has firmly established itself as an indispensable seasonal tradition, ushering in the Christmas season with warmth and joy.
Early booking is recommended.
