Conductor Stephen Bell and two guest vocalists make for the perfect Christmas elves to magic up some Yuletide spirit, with blazing brass fanfares, enchanting croons under the Christmas tree, and a resounding ‘five gold rings’ from the entire Hall… you won’t want to say that you missed our Christmas Cracker.
