Two of the Brighton’s most respected choirs – **Resound** and **Rebelles** – will join forces on **Friday, December 9** and **Saturday, December 10** for a concert designed to lift the soul of those battling through a tough winter.

Staged in the stunning setting of **St Paul’s Church**, ***Beat The Bleak Midwinter*** is an eclectic programme of music – from **Kate Bush** to **Irving Berlin**.

The concert also continues both choirs’ commitment to champion music by living LGBTQ+ composers including **Mari Esabel Valverde** and **Jennifer Higdon**.

Ahead of the performances, musical director **Sam Barton** said: “With the cost of living crisis making life difficult for so many of us, we wanted to create a night of sheer escapism where people can enjoy a couple of hours of uplifting Christmas music with a glass of wine in a beautiful location.”
