We started the countdown to Christmas on Advent Sunday in the beautiful setting of the 14th century Church of St Andrew’s Alfriston, “The Cathedral of the Downs”.
Four well-known local singers – Noa Lachman (soprano), Rebecca Hughes (mezzo), Ben Hancox-Lachman (tenor) and Jozik Kotz (bass) with William Hancox at the piano performed a mixture of sacred music for Advent and Christmas, solos with a seasonal theme and some lighter festive numbers! Set in the wonderful atmosphere of St Andrew’s Alfriston, “The Cathedral of the Downs” it was a magical and fun way to get into the Christmas mood. And it marked Will’s first return to concert life after his illness!
Programme included music by Bach, Byrd, Verdi, Vaughan Williams, Britten and more. It was the perfect prelude to your Christmas celebrations.
