Chamber Choir to lead the St Peter’s carol service

Date:

University Music Chamber Choir will be coming to Dorchester to lead the Advent Carol Service at St Peter’s Church on Saturday 2nd December at 4.30pm.
The choir is formed of students from Bournemouth University and Arts University Bournemouth, all of whom continue to develop their musical skills to an incredibly high level while also completing their varied degree courses.
The service incorporates beautiful choral settings from composers including Judith Weir, James MacMillan, John Tavener, Philip Stopford and Benjamin Britten alongside much-loved advent hymns.
It begins in candlelight as the readings, liturgy and music move from darkness to light.
This is the choir’s first visit to Dorchester and provides the local community with a wonderful opportunity to listen to and support this talented next generation of singers.
The Advent Carol Service is a free event, and everyone is very welcome to come along.
