"A Christmas Carol Cantata" is back!
Saturday Dec 16th 2023
5.00pm
We are so excited to be performing A Christmas Carol again this year - alongside some other festive music. The Young Phoenix Choir will be joining us to make it even more special!"A Christmas Carol Cantata" is based on the original novella by Charles Dickens, composed by Ashley Thompson with a libretto by award-winning playwright Deborah McAndrew. This retelling through song, without narration, of Charles Dickens' classic tale, draws on a wide variety of styles - some old, some new - whilst also incorporating well-loved carols that would have been known in Victorian England. It is at the same time contemporary and rich in tradition. If you would like to hear some snippets from "A Christmas Carol Cantata", take a look at our Have a Listen page!

The Phoenix Singers adopted its name in 1985, when the choir was re-born from the ashes of the former Leek High School Choir. Since then the choir has developed a varied repertoire, performing major choral works, small-scale pieces and contemporary music. It draws its membership from all parts of the Staffordshire Moorlands and beyond. A registered charity (no.1085474), it is a genuine community choir in that it welcomes anyone who enjoys singing. There are no auditions.
