A Chorister For Christmas 2020
The sound of the clear voice of a chorister, effortlessly singing the opening lines to “Once in Royal David’s City” has long been associated with our traditional Christmas festivities. The boys and girls who take part in those carol services are usually members of choirs and singing groups that perform throughout the year.
