Christmas concert by the Salisbury Community Choir with traditional carols and guest appearances.
Salisbury Community Choir are back with their Christmas concert, Peace and Joy, on Saturday 12 December at St Mark's Church on St Mark's Avenue. It's a celebration of Christmas built around traditional carols, with guest appearances throughout the evening.
If you've not come across them before, the choir is a community group of around 160 people. They're ambitious but non-auditioned, and they describe themselves as singing for the love of it — which is a nice way of putting it. It's a big, open-membership choir rather than a small, select ensemble, so the sound comes from a proper crowd of local voices rather than a handful of trained professionals.
That scale is part of the draw. With 160 people on stage, a room full of traditional carols has a particular weight to it that you don't get from a smaller group. The guest appearances add a bit of variety to the mix, too, so it's not just the choir on their own for the whole night.
