ACCLAIMED classical choir, La Nova Singers, kick off their tenth anniversary celebrations in style this December with an evening of Christmas music on Wednesday, December 10 at Highcliffe Castle.

The all-female ensemble formed in 2004, which has recently been featured on BBC Radio 3, has been described as, “one of the best – if not the best – choral groups around”.

Fans of 20th century composer Benjamin Britten will be in for a treat, as the group will perform his Ceremony of Carols, accompanied on the harp by special guest artist Katie Salomon as well as traditional Christmas songs.

Doors open at 7pm with the performance starting at 7.30pm. Mulled wine and mince pies will be available to purchase in the interval.

Tickets are £12.50 from the Highcliffe Castle box office, call 01425 278807.
