The Cathedral Choristers and the Trebles of the Cathedral Choir present a service of Nine Lessons and Carols. The Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols was first celebrated at King’s College, Cambridge on Christmas Eve, 1918. It was an adaptation of a similar service that had been written for the cathedral at Truro in 1880.
The choir will sing music by Gregg Smith, Raymond Nagem, Malcolm J. Merriweather, Benjamin Britten, Larry Long, Peter Warlock, and John Rutter.
