The Choristers sang their final service of the term yesterday, followed by prizegiving for musicianship, liturgy, and completion of the year’s music examinations.

During the service, six probationers were given their surplices as they have earned their place as full members of the Schola Cantorum after a year of musical preparation.
We are also very pleased that Ida will be joining the Collegiate Church Choir in the autumn as a Junior Choral Scholar.

The service also marked the final time they will be led by Mark Duley, as he steps down from his long-time position as Director of the Schola Cantorum.

Congratulations to all the choristers for a wonderful year and we look forward to welcoming them back in September.
