Joining your genial host, conductor Stephen Bell, is versatile baritone Rodney Earl Clarke, whose velvet tone has been heard in a host of high-profile engagements, from opera houses and the BBC Proms to Twickenham and the West End. Alongside vocal highlights from Handel, Mozart, Mel Torme and Les Miserables you’ll also enjoy a sack full of seasonal orchestral showpieces from the likes of Adam Saunders, Erich Korngold, Paul Campbell and Serge Prokofiev, with some classic cinematic magic in the shape of music from Home Alone and Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.
