A popular award-winning Malvern-based choir is gearing up to perform at Tewkesbury Abbey.

The Aldwyn Voices will perform at the Abbey on Sunday, December 8 at 3pm.

The choir was described as "a superb choral group" when they won the Kodaly Trophy for contemporary music in the BBC/EBU international competition 'Lets the Peoples' Sing'.

This concert, 'A Sequence of Music & Literature for Advent & Christmas', will mark the choir's 26th performance in the abbey's impressive surroundings.

The event has previously reached audiences worldwide in the past through broadcasts on the BBC World Service.

Their repertoire will span from 11th-century Plainsong to contemporary pieces, including works by Richard Lambert, a distinguished composer now residing in Malvern.

The choir will be conducted by Adrian Lucas, the head of choral studies at the Royal School of Church Music, with Carleton Etherington, the minister of music at the Abbey, as organist.

Tickets are priced at £10 and can be purchased at the door.
