Festival Carol Service and La Nativité du Seigneur – Messiaen

Sunday 22nd December 2024, 5.00pm - 6.30pm

Join the cathedral choir and clergy for a mix of seasonal music, readings and congregational carols.

Immediately following the carol service, there will be a performance of Oliver Messianen’s monumental organ work La Nativité du Seigneur given by the cathedral organist, Richard Lea.

In composing the nine meditations, Messiaen was inspired by the nativity narrative, mountains, birdsong, and stained-glass windows.

Admission is free with a retiring collection.
