The Corinthian Singers of Adelaide

Join us for our traditional Christmas concert in two of Adelaide’s most beautiful venues. Directed from the harp by Emma Horwood, the choir will be presenting excerpts from ‘The Ceremony of Carols’ by Benjamin Britten as well as sublime carols and songs for the season of peace. Join in the congregational carols and allow yourself to be lifted by the choir’s performance of a range of traditional and contemporary works.

For those who are intending to sing along with us, below are the chorus works we will be singing:

• And the Glory of the Lord
• And He Shall Purify
• O Thou that Tellest Good Tidings to Zion
• For Unto Us a Child is Born
• Glory to God
• His Yoke is Easy
• Lift Up Your Heads
• Let All the Angels
• The Lord Gave the Word

Now that the ice of winter is finally thawing and spring is in sight, we are busy preparing for our upcoming concert ‘A Musical Banquet’.

The Corinthians’ Musical Director Emma Horwood has put together a tantalising menu of works that includes spicy melodies, mouth-watering madrigals and deliciously sophisticated harmonies. Your musical palate promises to be delighted by melodious morsels such as the Mexican rhythms of Chilli Con Carne and the full flavours of Food Glorious Food from the musical ‘Oliver’. The main course will be a suite of songs by Bob Chilcott of King’s Singers fame, perfectly complemented by the Wassail Song arranged by Ralph Vaughan Williams. This choral banquet will be accompanied by Karl Geiger on keyboard.

Details:

Both concerts are at Malvern Uniting Church Hall, 44 Marlborough Street, Malvern.
