On Saturday 22 November at Evensong we were delighted to admit Ari, Diva and Rebecca to the Cathedral Choir.

It was a particularly suitable day for a chorister admission as it was the commemoration of St Cecilia the patron saint of musicians. The new choristers promised to fulfil their duties with enthusiasm and devotion and we look forward to all that they and their families will bring to our worshipping life during their time in the choir.

We are blessed to enjoy the gifts of our cathedral musicians, and on the feast where we give thanks to God for musicians we give thanks for the Cathedral Choir, the Parish Singers, The Parish Orchestra, the Cathedral Youth Choir, the Cathedral Junior Choir and our Bell ringers.  

If you have a child who is interested in joining the cathedral choir, a ‘Be a chorister for the day’ taster is being held on Saturday 31 January 2026 for girls in years 3 & 4 and Saturday 7 February 2026 for boys in years 3 & 4.
