Concerts span early, Baroque, Renaissance and contemporary music with lots of lovely madrigal singing. The fabulous Streetwise Opera also premiere "Fables - A Film Opera", part-opera, part-film created by some of the country’s leading composers and filmmakers working with Streetwise Opera performers (who are homeless or formerly homeless).

Tickets start from just £5 and there are also a number of free events, including winter songs on Crispin Place E1 on Thursday 16 December, 6pm.

Spitalfields Music Winter Festival runs 13-­18 December 2010 and 5-­7 January 2011 in Shoreditch Church. Tickets, from £5, available from Spitalfields Music Box Office on 020 7377 1362. All info at spitalfieldsmusic.org.uk
