This striking setting in elevThe Ebor Singers present Britten’s A Ceremony of Carols alongside Charpentier’s Messe de Minuit pour Noël – two wonderfully contrasting visions of Christmas.This year marks the 50th anniversary of Britten's death, and we perform Britten’s popular A Ceremony of Carols, dating from the Second World War, alongside his Hymn to the Virgin, written when was he was just 16. Charpentier’s Messe de Minuit pour Noël was written in France in the 1690s for the celebration of Christmas. Written for Midnight Mass, Charpentier draws on traditional Christmas music, weaving familiar French Noël melodies into the Latin Mass. The result is elegant, rhythmic and wonderfully colourful Baroque music, with the carols giving the work an unmistakably festive character. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/york/the-ebor-singers-a-ceremony-of-carols/100002002476442946 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, christmas-services - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Age Limit: Under 18 with Guardian - Doors Open At: 7:00 PM - Duration: 2 hours - Location: St Olave's Church - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 20, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: York - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: St Olave's Church - **lat**: 53.9624068 - **long**: -1.0891499 - **full address**: St Olave's Church, Marygate, York, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: The Ebor Singers: A Ceremony of Carols - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/5103f93b721be23536598b107b95ec05cbd85e3ac505ffca64e0a7eeccf4f761-rimg-w700-h600-dc080808-gmir.jpg?v=1790768797 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is The Ebor Singers: A Ceremony of Carols being held? - **A:** The Ebor Singers: A Ceremony of Carols takes place on Sun, 20 Dec, 2026 at 07:30 pm to Sun, 20 Dec, 2026 at 09:30 pm at St Olave's Church, Marygate, York, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing The Ebor Singers: A Ceremony of Carols? - **A:** The Ebor Singers: A Ceremony of Carols is organized by The Ebor Singers. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
