For their advent concert, London Concord Singers will be performing Advent music Ancient and Modern. The programme ranges from Keith Roberts Veni, a recent setting of the great O Anthems, and Jonathan Dove's evocative I am the Day, a combination of one of the O Anthems with the Legend of St. Christopher, through to a group of early motets. There will also be stops along the way to take in some of Mendelssohn's late motets, written for Berlin cathedral. The full programme includes motets by Luc Jakobs, Orlando Gibbons, Michael Praetorius, Hieronimus Praetorius, Johann Walther, Samuel Scheidt and Andreas Hammerschmidt
