In 2009 the lay vicars, choral scholars and assistant organist all undertook a fund-raising  project never tried before: they each had to teach themselves to play a musical instrument that they had never played before! They had nine weeks to prepare for the ABRSM Grade One examination on their chosen instrument. The results were impressive, and they raised approximately £1000 for the Choir Association, which will go towards funding the next choir tour abroad.

    

            

 

                                 

Choral Scholarships

From time to time vacancies arise for choral scholars to join the Choir; Choral Scholars participate fully in the seven weekly services(Evensong TTFSS, + Eucharist and Mattins on Sunday), undertaking regular solo and semi-chorus involvement within the choir, and develop their technique and solo repertoire with regular, fully-subsidised tuition from highly regarded voice teacher Robert Rice. In return they receive a generous remuneration package which, overall, has parity with that of the Cathedral Lay Vicars.
