Christmas music is an integral part of Christmas. Christmas carols are the soundtrack of every year’s festive season, with a strong nostalgic feel that makes us feel connected to our own and previous generations’ Christmases. For this concert, I have chosen my own favourites from the wide selection of carols and we will also debut our own new winter-themed song. I hope that through these songs you will join us in the timeless atmosphere of Christmas, personal yet shared together.
The concert is organised by the Cultural Services of the City of Rauma.
