MUSIC FOR THE SUNG EUCHARIST and CHORAL EVENSONG
The Chapel Choir sings each Sunday morning (except during August and on the Sundays after Christmas and Easter). The music is drawn from the great repertoire of mass settings, motets, anthems and organ music by composers from the renaissance to the present day, chosen to complement the season and the readings for the service. Choral Evensong is sung on the third Thursday of each month by the chapel choir.
