Five different musical groups combined in an informal family concert to raise money for the Coventry and Warwickshire Children’s Charity. Joining Coventry Cathedral Chorus were the Brass Band of Central England, the boy choristers of Coventry Cathedral, and a local primary school choir.
Everyone sang and played their hearts out, nor lest the fifth ensemble, as the audience joined in some popular well known carols.
Coventry Cathedral Chorus is joined in the Cathedral by Orchestra Pro Anima and four distinguished soloists in its annual performance of Messiah this coming Monday, 16 December. The performance begins at 7.00pm and you can book your ticket here, saving £5 on the cost of a ticket bought on the door.
We hope to see you there.

Our Proms concert proved very popular, with a good audience who were only too happy to join in with the singing of Auld Lang Syne as the concert drew to a close.
Here are a few of the things people said about the night.
"I wish I could hear it all again."
"Looks so colourful and energetic!!"
"Just got home from this concert, what a joyous evening, well done chorus and Coventry and Warwickshire youth orchestra."

Our Good Friday concert took a different direction this year. In place of one of the large scale passions, we sang a programme of shorter pieces, each reflecting on the events of Holy Week. It was a challenge to learn music in so many different styles, but one that the chorus rose to. With smaller forces - just organ accompaniment for some of the music - we were able to present the music in a more intimate setting, with the audience closer to the performers than usual.
"That was a wonderful selection of music and beautifully sung."

In April 2023 we joined with our friends in the Parliament Choir to sing Elgar's Dream of Gerontius in Rome. Although the Pope was not able to attend himself, several senior Vatican clergy were present. Singing in the Basilica of St Paul Outside the Walls was an exhilerating experience. You can see some pictures of the event here.
