Serenata have a wonderful programme of music for you – all sung in the close harmonies of upper voices that are a feature of the choir. Their ‘Sing We Now of Christmas’ concert will bring a mix of contemporary and traditional carols, and they will be singing some well-known tunes including ‘The Sussex Carol’ and ‘In the Bleak Midwinter’ along with Christmas songs from around the world.
