The Lydians Singers will take their Christmas jubilance to Diego Martin and San Fernando when it stages Joyful, Joyful! A Jazzy Lydian Christmas.

Supported by First Citizens, the Lydians will host the concert from 7.30 pm at St Finbar’s RC Church on December 9, and at St Paul’s Anglican Church on December 10, from 6 pm.

This event will transport patrons to a world where the festive joy and holiness of the season meet the cool sophistication of jazz, a media release said.

The Lydians, the 2023 Gospel Music Awardee of Choir of the Year, promises harmonious fusion of traditional yuletide melodies with a contemporary flair, and a blending of the rhythms of steel and tassa.
