Banbury's NHS Horton Power Choir hope to raise the roof at annual Christmas concerts
Banbury’s NHS Horton Power Choir is hoping to raise the roof at St Mary's Church next month when it holds two free Christmas concerts (December 17 and 18).
The choir, which is made up of around 50 former and current staff members at Banbury’s Horton Hospital, has been holding Christmas concerts for the past few years.
The popular concerts see the Power Choir perform a combination of classic Christmas carols as well as some sing-along favourites.
This year, the choir has extended the festivities to run over two nights in the hopes that no one will miss out on their roof-raising performances.
The choir was formed in 2023 by Jason Rigby following his win at the BBC’s Gospel Choir of the Year competition.
He initially set it up to promote well-being and joy through singing, and the choir has since gone from strength to strength.
Jason said: “Get ready to enjoy a festive evening packed with Christmas classics, modern festive tunes, and even some lively party beats to keep the holiday spirit high.
“This is more than just a concert; it's a chance to gather together for a night of joy and community, supporting the NHS Horton Power Choir's mission of music for the mind.”
The two concerts will take place at St Mary’s Church from 6pm until 9.30pm, with the choir set to take to the stage at 7pm.
As with previous years, there will be a bar serving drinks and refreshments.
