And well-known St Andrean Anna Poole (pictured right) returns to sing alongside Jane Pettegree and the Celebration Chorus.

Originally from the town, soprano Anna is now based in Edinburgh.

She has sung in venues as diverse as the QE2, the Albert Hall, Notre Dame in Paris ... and the Ascension Island!

The programme includes Corelli’s ‘Christmas Concerto’ with its wonderful evocation of the shepherds’ pastorale, Charpentier’s joyous setting of the ‘Christmas Mass’, and seasonal motets and anthems.
