St Bartholomew’s Church in Lostwithiel will fill with song this weekend when a special Christmas service celebrating the 19th century carols of the Cornish diaspora will be held.
After raising the roof of Truro Cathedral last year, this choral celebration and service brings together singers and writers, poets and speakers from all over Cornwall.
Over 200 voices will share a selection of carols, which Cornish people took with them as they departed Cornwall in search of work during the mid nineteenth century.
The Glad Sounds of Christmas service will take place at St Bartholomew’s Church Lostwithiel on Saturday, December 7 at 7.30pm.
