Love Came Down At Christmas

We are very fortunate to have been given a new arrangement of Love Came Down At Christmas composed by Stephen Nash (words by Christina Rosetti) to sing at our Christmas concert. We were doubly fortunate that Stephen also videoed us and passed the video on to us. Here we are singing Love Came Down At Christmas at Trellech Church.

From The Archives


Back during Covid lockdown we produced, using the technology of the internet, a video of A Shepherd's Farewell by Berlioz. Since we have just performed it in our Christmas concert we thought you might like to see that video again.
