Christmas Concert 2019
Mulled wine, mince pies, festive headgear, ambient lighting and musical multiplicity provided the perfect mix for the senses on Tuesday evening, as the College opened its doors for a cheerful Christmas Concert.
The Birley Centre welcomed members of the College community and the public to enjoy some festive favourites performed by some of our most talented musicians.
The College Symphony Orchestra, String Orchestra, Flute Group, Chamber Choir and Jazz Band combined to roast some chestnuts on an open fire, pay homage to a certain chilly Disney classic, and even Rudolph and Frosty dropped in!
Huge thanks to Director of Music Dan Jordan, his team, and the pupils, for getting us truly in the mood for Christmas.
