This vivacious and colourful 'Christmas Overture' was commissioned for the 2007 Christmas concert at the Royal Albert Hall, with John Rutter and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. It proved an instant success with audience and orchestra alike!
A Christmas Festival
Based on the annual 'Christmas Festival' concerts at the Royal Albert Hall, John Rutter directs the Cambridge Singers, The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, and the award-winning Farnham Youth Choir alongside guest soloists Melanie Marshall, Clara Sanabras and Elin Manahan Thomas, for an unforgettable festival of Christmas music.
John Rutter, English composer and conductor, is associated with choral music throughout the world. His recordings with the Cambridge Singers (the professional chamber choir he set up in 1983) have reached a wide global audience, many of them featuring his own music in definitive versions. Among John’s best-known choral works are Gloria, Requiem, Magnificat, Mass of the Children, and Visions, together with many church anthems, choral songs and Christmas carols.
