在一年一度欢度佳节的时光,众多牛津大学的无伴奏合唱团也为我们带来了更多美妙动听的作品。


延续传统,让我们用2023年的五个风格各不相同的“牛津好声音”,祝所有的校友朋友圣诞新年快乐,生活时时洋溢着美丽的旋律。

It's that time of the year when many of Oxford's wonderful acappella groups bring us more beautiful songs. 


Continuing the tradition, we want to share five different styles of 'Voices of Oxford' and wish all our alumni and friends a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year of many days brimmed with beautiful melodies.

伍斯特书院合唱团


今年牛津大学官网用伍斯特书院合唱团的表演来送上圣诞新年祝福。伍斯特书院在牛津大学中是独一无二的,因为它不只有一个,而是有两个地位平等、蓬勃发展的教堂唱诗班,共同承担每周的礼拜。书院的小教堂于1791年建成,但其内部装饰在1864年由威廉·伯格斯进行了改造,使其成为色彩和细节都无比丰富的空间。


不妨聆听这首圣诞经典歌曲《牧羊人的颂歌》,愿美丽的歌声给所有的朋友们带来美好快乐的节日和新年!

Worcester College Choir


This year's Seasons Greetings message of Oxford University comes from the Worcester College Choir. Worcester is unique among Oxford colleges in that it has not one, but two flourishing chapel choirs of equal status, which share the weekly services between them. The College Chapel was completed in 1791, but its interior was transformed into the riot of colour and detail that it is today by William Burges in 1864.


Listen to this classic Christmas song "The Shepherd's Carol", and may the beautiful song bring all the friends a wonderful and happy holiday season and New Year!
