St Peter's Church stands in the heart of Nottingham, and the voluntary, robed choir produces what the Nottingham Evening Post has termed an "outstanding standard of music-making" Sunday-by-Sunday, as well as in frequent concert appearances and visits to other churches and cathedrals both in the UK and abroad. The choir is an exceptionally friendly and welcoming group; our choristers range from fir

st year students at the universities to those who have sung in the choir for over fifty years. Repertoire is equally wide-ranging, from plainsong and renaissance polyphony to contemporary works from across the world.

Last Sunday, it was announced that Peter Siepmann will be leaving the parish at the end of November to take up the role of Director of Music at Nottingham (St Barnabas) Cathedral. Peter has been on the music team in the parish for 23 years, with 18 of those as Director of Music.
