We are deeply saddened to share the news of the death of Harrison Cole, Assisting Organist at King's College.

Harrison Cole was a music scholar at Ipswich School, and during his school years he spent three years as a student at the Junior Department of the Royal Academy of Music. Following a gap year organ scholarship at Wells Cathedral he came up to Trinity College Cambridge as organ scholar in 2019. Upon graduation he spent a year as assistant organist at Gonville and Caius College before taking up his position at King’s in September 2024.

During his time at King’s he accompanied the Choir on recordings, broadcasts and tours, including two Festivals of Nine Lessons and Carols, and tours to Australia, Estonia, USA and Canada. Harrison was due to leave King’s this summer, and had recently been appointed to assistantships at St Paul’s Knightsbridge and St Michael’s Cornhill: two significant musical establishments in London from which he was poised to develop a freelance career as pianist, organist and conductor.

"The entire College community has felt this loss keenly, particularly the Choir and Chapel teams" said Provost Gillian Tett. "Our thoughts are with his family and loved ones at this sad time”.

Hidden in the corners of King Henry VIII's Screen in King's College Chapel are a small, almost encrypted declaration of his love for his then Queen, Anne Boleyn who was crowned and anointed Queen of England on this day in 1533.

Owing to Anne's very short time as Queen, these carvings allow us to date the building of the screen to within less than a 3 year period. However, we would like to stress that chronological or stratigraphic accuracy is not a justification for bloody murder.

Congrats to Professor Ashley Moffett on her election to the Fellowship

Ashley is the foremost international authority on the immunology of human reproduction. Her research into placental biology has transformed our global understanding of both normal and abnormal pregnancies.

Ashley’s genetic studies have provided critical breakthroughs into the causes of major pregnancy disorders such as pre-eclampsia, the potentially fatal condition that can affect women in the later stages of pregnancy. Her work has offered vital insights into high rates of maternal mortality in Ugandan populations.

Professor Moffett has taught and trained generations of medical students and physicians both in the UK and East Africa. Her work and research continue to improve the lives of individuals across the globe. And we at King’s are incredibly proud of Ashley’s latest achievement (just one in a very long line of incredible achievements).

Ashley Moffett is Emeritus Professor of Reproductive Immunology Department of Pathology and Emeritus Fellow in Medical Sciences at King’s College, Cambridge.
