Who are the St Cecilia Singers?

Picture

​We are a friendly group of around 25 accomplished amateur and semi-professional singers who love to sing challenging repertoire to a high standard.
We have strong links with Gloucester cathedral, having been founded in 1949 by Donald Hunt, the Assistant Organist. For most of our 70 year history, our choir has been conducted by the Assistant Director of Music of Gloucester Cathedral, currently Jonathan Hope.

We have the privilege of performing at least twice a year in Gloucester Cathedral. Our Christmas concert is for many people the start of their Christmas celebrations. We also sing Evensong in the Cathedral at least once a year, often followed by a free concert.​

​We rehearse on a Tuesday evening in Gloucester and currently have vacancies for talented, fun and ambitious singers to join our team.

​Entry to the choir is by audition, and if we do not have an immediate vacancy for your voice we will happily put you on our waiting list. If you'd like to join us, please 
contact us to arrange an audition.
For information regarding our policies on safeguarding children and vulnerable people, please refer to our Safeguarding Policy page.​
Orpheus could lead the savage race;
And trees unrooted left their place;
Sequacious of the lyre:
But bright Cecilia rais'd the wonder high'r;
When to her organ, vocal breath was giv'n,
An angel heard, and straight appear'd
Mistaking earth for Heav'n

From 'A Song for St Cecilia’s Day' - John Dryden
