By Logan Martell

On December 21, 2022, Bampton Classical Voices will present “In Dulci Jubilo: Christmas Music from 17th Century Germany.”

Held at St. Mary’s Church in Bampton, Oxfordshire, the concert, which commemorates the village’s patron Saint, Beornwald, will feature sacred motets and Christmas hymns from the late Renaissance and early Baroque eras, by composers such as Heinrich Schutz, Michael Praetorius, Orlande de Lassus, and Johannes Eccard.

The program will also feature Hieronymus Praetorius’ “Magnificat Quinti Toni,” an 8-part setting with carols placed between the verses of the Magnificat. Conductor Andrew Griffiths will lead the vocal ensemble as they return to Bampton for this holiday concert.

Tickets are available for 19 Pounds, with a discount of 9 Pounds for those under 18.
