Stephen Cleobury), E’en So, Lord Jesus, Quickly Come (Paul Manz), Infinite Light (arr. Paul Halley), A Tender Shoot (Kerensa Briggs), Angelus ad Virginem (arr. Andrew Carter), Noel: Verbum caro factum est (Tamsin Jones), The Shepherd’s Carol (Bob Chilcott), The Three Kings (Peter Cornelius), and Now May We Singen (Cecilia McDowall).
