We have two double passes to see A Choral Christmas Celebration featuring the St. Marys Cathedral Choir and Sinfonia Australis to give away.
St Mary's Cathedral in Sydney will resound with exquisite Christmas music performed by the St Mary's Cathedral Choir and Sinfonia Australis in two concerts on Friday, December 16.
With choral works by Bach, Handel and Rutter, and a feast of favourite Christmas carols, this concert is a serene start to the festive season.
Year after year sell-out crowds have been delighted by this traditional Christmas experiencer.
Tickets for the two performances of A Choral Christmas Celebration are now on sale.
The choir is acknowledged as the oldest musical ensemble in Australia, tracing its origins to 1818.
Its boy choristers sing with professional male adult singers, constituting Australia's only fully professional Cathedral Choir in the tradition of King's College, Cambridge, and Westminster Cathedral.
In addition to providing music for more than 500 church services in the cathedral each year, the St Mary's Cathedral Choir gives rare critically acclaimed concerts, and has performed in international festivals, as well as special performances for all the recent popes.
The Cathedral Choir will once again be joined by Sinfonia Australis, a chamber orchestra of some Australia's finest players.
The orchestra is renowned for a number of recorded CDs made with solo voice and solo instrumentalists, including the complete set of Beethoven piano concertos with pianist Gerard Willems.
Other projects include a co-presentation between ABC TV, ABC Classics and Opera Australia, and many more CDs. Sinfonia Australis has also recorded soundtracks for feature films including The Bank and The Boys.
The highlight for many audience members will be the opportunity to join in singing with the choir and orchestra for such favourite carols as O Come, all ye faithful, Hark the herald angels sing, Once in royal David's city and more.
St. Mary's Cathedral is at College Street, Sydney, December 16. There will be an 11am concert, and a 7pm concert. Tickets cost $40 for premium seats and $20 for general admission.
