Cathedral Choir at an Ordination Mass

Cathedral Choir

The Cathedral Choir is a mixed, auditioned adult choir made up of volunteers, choral scholars and exhibitioners.

At each service the choir performs Mass settings by composers ranging from Palestrina and Byrd through to Poulenc, Langlais and James MacMillan, together with three major anthems, in the acoustic of Clifton Cathedral.

The choir's repertoire spans sacred music from across the centuries, including new commissions and music from the Renaissance period.
