'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 />
