Christmas and New Year

Concerts

 

The City of Oxford Orchestra was founded in 1965 with a firm commitment to provide live, classical music of the highest quality to the widest possible audience.  The Orchestra has played to acclaim in most of the capital cities of Europe whilst also providing all-year-round concerts in Oxford's beautiful, historical buildings, in particular, Sir Christopher Wren's stunning Sheldonian Theatre

 

Welcome to our Christmas and New Year concerts

The Christmas Concerto by Candlelight is a truly magical musical experience in the superb acoustics of Exeter College Chapel. 

Our exuberant Artistic Director, Stephen Bell presents his unmissable  Viennese New Year Concert  where, alongside his exciting Strauss selection, he welcomes for the first time the internationally acclaimed singer Rebecca Bottone who will sing a selection of songs.
