"A Celestial Gift" is a special program featuring a trove of sacred choral music from across five centuries.

This includes eminent choral works such as Holst's Nunc dimittis and Allegri's Psalm 51.

It also spotlights music by contemporary composers, featuring In Winter’s House by Joanna Marsh and Sir James MacMillan’s Miserere.

Although entrance is free, there will be a retiring collection for the benefit of St Nicholas Hospice Care, with volunteers on hand to accept donations.

All proceeds will assist the work of the hospice, so attendees are encouraged to give generously.

The event will take place on Saturday, November 16.
