We are delighted that we are back on the road to normality, illustrated by the return to Clonter of the London Adventist Chorale’s annual visit. Last year we beamed a bespoke Clonter concert to you digitally from London, but we couldn’t be happier to be able to get you all back in the same space once more again this year.
DVD for Sale – If you are unable to attend this event, but would like to purchase a DVD of last year’s digital concert, for either yourself or a loved one this Christmas, please contact the Box Office on 01260 224514 or at boxoffice@clonter.org.

Hailed as one of the world’s greatest gospel choirs, the London Adventist Chorale returns by popular request, to perform their annual Christmas special at Clonter.
The London Adventist Chorale was formed in 1981, to bring together and develop the talents of singers from various Seventh-day Adventist Churches. Its current principal conductor, Ken Burton of BBC ‘The Choir’ fame, has conducted the choir for over two decades.
Its repertoire over the years has included music in Hebrew, African-American Spirituals, close harmony, and western choral music, from Renaissance through to new commissioned work.
The Chorale’s performances have been experiences by tens of millions world-wide on stage, screen, recordings and radio appearances. The choir has performed in most of the UK’s major performance venues. Among the many notable venues and performances are Buckingham Palace on the occasion of Her Majesty The Queen’s Gold Jubilee, Toronto’s Sky Dome before an audience of seventy thousand , and BBC Proms concerts. One Times reviewer was so taken aback, he wrote in the newspaper that he had found ‘the perfect choir‘.
In 1994, the choir won the prestigious ‘Choir Of The Year’ title, and was awarded BBC UK Gospel Choir Of the Year by the BBC a year later.
The choir has worked in collaboration with a number of notable artists, including Bryn Terfel CBE, Sir Willard White, Larnelle Harris, Wynton Marsalis, Wilhelmenia Fernandez and Lesley Garrett.

Covid-19 Safety Measures
Due to recent Covid-19 updates, in line with other theatres, we would ask that everyone attending on Saturday:
- Bring proof of double vaccination, a recent negative test (taken within 24 hours prior to attending the event) or proof of immunity via the NHS Covid Pass, a certified NHS letter or email.
- To wear a mask at all times during your visit, except when you are sitting at your tables for the supper interval.
- We also do not feel that the sing along that was planned will be advisable, but we HOPE that the fact that we are still able to all be in the same room at the same time, with a live performance will still be something special.
