DURHAM University Chamber Choir is to perform at a Christmas concert in Durham Town Hall on Tuesday, December 13.

A Venetian Christmas is the choir's first commissioned work, drawing on Monteverdi's Christmas Vespers.

Originally written in 1640, the work has been edited by Clifford Bartlett and the 20-voice choir will be conducted by Peter Stobart.

Tickets are £6 or £4 for concessions and the performance starts at 7.30pm.
