There has been a choir at Christ's College, Cambridge since its foundation in 1505. Female voices were introduced when the college became mixed in 1979 and the choir is one of Cambridge's finest ensembles.

The choir sings Anglican services in the College Chapel and at feasts and weddings, in addition to pursuing an exciting range of activities outside college. These include concerts around the UK, recording CDs, broadcasting and undertaking a major international tour each summer, this year to Singapore and New Zealand. Conducted by Professor David Rowland, the choir sings a selection of music from the English and European choral traditions from the 16th Century to the present.

This concert will feature Mozart's Ave Verum Corpus, Warum ist das Licht gegeben by Brahms and other wonderful choral music including some of the choir's favourite pieces by Thomas Tallis and Henry Purcell.

Director Gillian Francis has consistently achieved a very high standard from her very creative and talented students (ranging from the ages of 3 to their mid-20s) over many years and this year's programme includes beautiful choreography, costuming, backdrops, lighting and sound. A superb evening featuring Swan Lake Act II and three other ballets is not to be missed!
