The tradition of “Lessons and carols” is well known in England and across the Nordic countries. It offers churchgoers the opportunity to prepare for the Christmas season by singing many of the most beloved Christmas hymns and enjoying beautiful choral music.
The Hallgrímskirkja Choir, the Reykjavík Cathedral Choir, and the Chamber Choir Huldur will perform and lead the congregational singing, conducted by Steinar Logi Helgason, Matthías Harðarson, and Hreiðar Ingi Þorsteinsson. Organist is Björn Steinar Sólbergsson.
Pastors from the participating congregations will take part in the concert with readings from Scripture.
