Our wonderful Chapel Choir has just returned from their residency Gloucester Cathedral They were delighted to receive a warm welcome and enjoyed singing for four days of services which included music by Stanford, Harris, Taverner, Mawby, Todd, Darke, Forbes L’Estrange and more! They also enjoyed the opportunity to meet alumni who came along to support them and to celebrate together at the end of a busy year. We are hugely grateful for all they do throughout the year!

If you are joining us in Durham in September and considering joining a Chapel choir, do follow to find out more. The choir sings two services per week in the College Chapel and details of how to join us will follow soon.

The Durham Fringe Durham Fringe Festival was a wonderful showcase of so much local and regional talent but a highlight for us was undoubtedly seeing Chadsian, Sam Trounson (Theology, 1974), in a fantastic outdoor production of Romeo and Juliet in Castle’s Fellows Garden. What a wonderful treat on a beautiful summer evening! Congratulations to everyone involved!

Our Chapel Choir is delighted to have received this wonderful letter from Her Majesty The Queen ahead of their forthcoming trip to Gloucester. The choir will sing services in Gloucester Cathedral this weekend, Saturday 8 - Tuesday 11 August - swipe to see the service schedule and repertoire.

Chad’s student and incoming Organ Scholar was fortunate to meet Her Majesty earlier this summer and told her about the Chapel Choir and their forthcoming Residency in Gloucester, after which she very kindly wrote to wish them “the best of British luck”!
