David BEDNALL: Welcome All Wonders<br />

A Christmas Cantata<br />

The Choir of The Queen's College, Oxford<br />

RELEASE DATE<br />

<strong>29</strong>TH <strong>JULY</strong> 2013<br />

'Welcome all Wonders: A Christmas Cantata' is a large-scale work for choir, organ and trumpet spanning 15 movements.<br />

It celebrates the Christmas story through an imaginative selection and juxtaposition of poetry and liturgical texts, and<br />

provides a multifaceted telling of the familiar narrative. The celebratory aspects of Christmas are tainted by darker<br />

themes that are inherent to the story but are easily overlooked, culminating in an enlightened and engaging work that<br />

explores the Christmas story in a profound manner.<br />

The Choir of The Queen’s College, Oxford is among the finest and most active university choirs in the <strong>UK</strong>. Its<br />

wide-ranging repertory includes a rich array of Renaissance and Baroque music and contemporary works.<br />
