The Christmas concert of the Women´s Choir of Estonian Choral Conductors combines music from Estonian (Kreek, Kõrvits, Võrk, Vinter) and overseas (eg French, British, Italian, Norwegian et al) authors and includes several of the best-loved carols in the world, eg Oh come, All Ye Faithful (Adeste Fideles), O Holy Night (Cantique de Noël).
