Worcester College Chapel

We're grateful to the parish of Tackley in north Oxfordshire for the invitation to sing a concert in their beautiful medieval church at the end of term.
The choir will be presenting choral favourites that make good use of the parish's wonderful new Walker organ, along with Gardens, our brand new series of commissions that tell the story of the Bible through seven musical gardens.

2nd Week:
This week’s new commission for the choir is Jaakko Mäntyjärvi’s ‘No longer so near’, again part of Wednesday’s Compline at 9pm - though don’t miss Deborah Pritchard’s stunning ‘Heaven’s King’ at Saturday’s 6pm Evensong for the University Choral & Organ Scholarship Open Day!
On Sunday we welcome Revd Dr Oliver Wright back to Worcester, along with our choristers who will be singing this service.

The new term is here!
We start with College Evensong on Sunday at 6pm, the Chaplain preaching, and during the week we will hear the choir sing two of the new commissions that will be featured on the recording the choir are making at the end of term. Come on Wednesday or Saturday to hear those! More to follow!

Good to see our chapel sermons being reported on in The Guardian!

Why do we need International Women’s Day? Apart from misogyny and Christian nationalism, you mean? | Zoe Williams I should probably be fuming about the way that companies try to cash in on IWD. But there are so many vile opinions to worry about instead, writes Zoe Williams

Final services poster of term…
Lots ahead of us this week before the Choristers head off to Florence for their Spring Tour.
Do join us at any (or all!) of this week’s services in Worcester College Chapel. We’d love to see you!

We were wonderfully surprised to be visited in chapel by broadcasting legend David Dimbleby this week (seen in the photo with the chaplain after Thursday’s service). Why not surprise us and come along to one of 7th week’s services? From College Communion to Compline, Choral Evensong to the ‘Everyday Wonders’ concert, we’d love to see you!
