Ealing Choral Society will broadcast a newly created Christmas concert performance on its YouTube channel on Saturday, 12th December at 7PM. The concert, which has been designed especially for an at-home audience, is conducted by Jonathan Williams and features the singers of Ealing Choral Society, organist Alexander Pott, and readings by ECS Associate John Sergeant and others.
Comprised of favourite Christmas carols for choir and audience interspersed with festive readings, the online concert reproduces in as much authenticity as possible Ealing Choral Society’s annual charity carol concert, normally a sell-out tradition for the people of Ealing. The highlight of the programme is a performance of “The Butterfly Carol,” a new carol commissioned by Members and Associates of Ealing Choral Society and written especially for Meadow House Hospice by Jonathan Williams with lyrics by Anna Wordsmith. With its soaring melodies and poignant text of love and loss, the moving carol is sure to strike an emotional chord with many listeners during what will be an exceptional Christmas celebration at the end of an unforgettable year.
Ealing Choral Society has had a long and happy association with Meadow House Hospice, which serves the population of the London boroughs of Ealing and Hounslow, caring for people with a life-limiting or terminal condition, their families and carers. Meadow House Hospice aims to show compassion, care, respect, and dignity at all times.
