Gabriella returns for Christmas Concert at Peterborough Cathedral

November 8, 2021

Opera singer Gabriella Pineda-Rodrigues is preparing to perform at a special festive concert at Peterborough Cathedral on Friday 10 December at 7.30pm.

The popular local mezzo-soprano will be returning to the Cathedral’s nave to sing a wonderful programme of seasonal songs entitled ‘A Christmas Lullaby’.

Her performance will include favourites such as Walking in the Air by Howard Blake, White Christmas by Irving Berlin, A New Year Carol by Benjamin Britten and the piece which gives the concert its title Songs for a New World: A Christmas Lullaby by Jason Robert Brown. She will also sing pieces by Fauré, Reger and Howells and traditional Christmas songs from around the world.

Gabriella said: “It’s always a privilege for me to perform at the Cathedral which is one of my favourite venues. It’s always been a special place for me and I am thrilled to be coming back once again after the lovely reception I received at my summer concert here.”

Her sell-out performance back in July was at the heart of the Cathedral’s busy post-Covid summertime programme of events.

Tickets for the Christmas concert cost £15.00 and are available via the Cathedral’s website www.peterborough-cathedral.org.uk (direct link https://www.peterborough-cathedral.org.uk/143/section.aspx/142/gabriella-christmas)
