One Sunday a year — today — the European Broadcast Union airs fine choral and instrumental music on CBC Radio 2 — a long-running tradition that has survived several rounds of budget cuts.

The broadcasts conclude at the Church of St Andrew and St Paul in Montreal with the 33rd annual CBC Christmas Sing-In.
