Christmas Carols Live at the Otago Museum

 


Carols @ OM

Sunday 19 December 2021, 2:00 pm
Upper level Atrium at the Otago Museum

Conducted by DAVID BURCHELL and MARK ANDERSON 

City Choir Dunedin presents an hour-long programme of Christmas music for the festive season. Come along to this free performance (koha appreciated) to welcome the spirit of Christmas at a time of joy and reflection. 

The programme will include some old favourites like 'The Twelve Days of Christmas" and "Joy to the World", some more unknown carols like "Alleluya, a New Work is Come to Hand" and a snippet from Handel's Messiah: "For Unto Us a Child is Born".

Thank you for sharing our music! We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

For those intending to perform or attend Christmas Carols Live at the Otago Museum on 19 December, be aware the Otago Museum is a vaccine mandated building, and you will be required to have your vaccine pass validated at the entrance.
