The College Choir, together with our Choristers, the Jericho Youth Choir and members of the Worcester Allsorts Community Choir have been recording this week.
We’re hoping to have the finished product for you early in the new year.
On the disc - Bob Chilcott’s The Rainbow, and Gardens, a cycle of seven new commissions by different composers that tell the story of the Bible in seven gardens.
Here’s a tiny iPhone snippet of one of those Gardens commissions.
More to come!

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.
