Acclaimed musicians GreenMatthews (with special guest Jude Rees of Pilgrims’ Way) present a festive romp through 600 years of Christmas music, songs and carols.

Old Christmas Return'd

We welcome Piva back to Shaw House where they will be performing seasonal music and songs from Tudor times.  Playing a wide range of authentic period instruments such as shawms, cornett and recorders, this year they are delighted to be joined by their special guest, singer An Croenen Brutsaert. The evening will be a perfect way to drive away the cold, dark nights of winter and prepare you for the Christmas festivities.
