Christmas At The Cathedral
An annual Christmas concert set in the timeless surroundings of St Anne’s Cathedral, Belfast.
———————
The night premiered on Friday the 20th and Saturday 21st December 2019 with World-class singers Peter Corry, Barbara Dickson and Patrick Smyth, joined by the BSPA Voices for an enchanting show of seasonal celebration in the most stunning of settings, St Anne’s Cathedral, Belfast.
Announcing the concert in December 2019, Peter said, “Last year we celebrated 10 years of The Music Box, which originally ran in the Ulster Transport Museum and then the Waterfront Hall. It felt like the right time to create something new and look at a venue to capture the emotions of Christmas and the warmth an intimate venue can bring.”
In 2021 the show returned after a 2 year hiatus due to the pandemic. Peter returned with numerous local guests including Francesco Schola, the lead Clarinetist from the Ulster Orchestra & Abbe Tanenbaum as special guests. Adoro joined to provide their accompanying beautiful choral sound to the proceedings.
It was great to get back to performing at Christmas and bringing some cheer to our audiences.
2022 saw a sell out run of shows with guests Ian McElhinney, The Celtic Tenors and Eimear McGeown on flute on Matthew Campbell joined by the BSPA voices once again.
The line up and tickets for 2023 have not as yet been announced.
