Carols by Candlelight

Tonight sees the second "Carols by Candlelight" event hosted by the Whirlow Hall Farm Trust at Ecclesall Parish Church in Sheffield.

Whirlow Hall Farm Trust was founded in 1979 as an educational trust working with inner city children and young people with special needs or disabilities. Since that date, over 250,000 children have visited Whirlow on a daily or residential basis. All proceeds from the carol concert will support their work.

This year I have written a carol for the event called "A Child's Carol" with words by Christina Rosetti. The piece will be performed by massed choirs of children from Dobcroft Junior School, All Saints Ecclesall Junior Choir, Carterknowle Junior and Arbourthorne Community Primary School. The children will be joined by The University of Sheffield Chamber Choir and Sonitas - an all-girl chamber group. The premiere will be conducted by Anna Wright.

Tickets Adults £7, Children £3 and Concessions £5. Good luck to everyone involved!
