Christmas carols, winter folk songs, toe-tapping tunes and a plethora of weird and wonderful instruments… GreenMatthews bring the festive season to life in a riot of sound and colour!

Modern-day balladeers Chris Green and Sophie Matthews specialise in telling stories through song. Following on from GreenMatthews’ 10 years of successful touring Christmas shows, Gaudete! is an expanded lineup. They play new and exciting arrangements of Chris and Sophie’s popular festive fare.

Featuring Emily Baines on early woodwinds and Richard Heacock on violin, their music is lush, rich and heartwarming. With repertoire spanning 600 years from the Middle Ages to the 20th century, they perfectly evoke the Spirit of Christmas Past.
