A Georgian Christmas - Carols by Candelight
In this the 250th anniversary month of Jane Austen’s birth, we are delighted to present ‘A Georgian Christmas’ as the theme for our much-loved Carols by Candlelight concerts at The Pump Room.
Set against the twinkling backdrop of Bath’s seasonal sights, sounds and aromas, we will stage four one-hour performances of Christmas music on 18 & 19 December – making it possible for guests to fit in a concert around shopping, dining and general wassailing.
The early-evening performances, from 7–8pm, will include the angelic children of Voices for Life; while the later-evening ones, from 8.30–9.30pm, will feature the virtuosic violin-playing of Hester Wiltshire, specialist musician from Wells Cathedral School.
In a heartwarming programme specially curated by conductor Benedict Collins Rice, the music to be performed is all drawn from the Georgian era, a mix of the traditional and the not-so-familiar.
Join us in The Pump Room for a joyous celebration that many generations call the true start of Christmas in Bath.
