ST MICHAEL'S AND ALL ANGELS CHOIR IS RECRUITING! LONSDALE ROAD, SUMMERTOWN, OXFORD OX2 7ES
This well established and welcoming choir sing most Sunday mornings, Christmas, Easter and occasional evensongs. Repertoire is cathedral style from several countries spanning 500 years.
Since 2015 the choir has sung in Bath Abbey and the cathedrals of Coventry, Gloucester, Bristol, Norwich, Worcester Brecon, Ripon (2023) and Tewkesbury Abbey (2024). August 2025 will see the Choir return to Gloucester Cathedral to sing the services for a weekend.
St Michael's Church has one of the best acoustics in Oxford (many professional ensembles use it for recording). The Choir is led by the Director of Music Duncan Saunderson, a graduate of the Guildhall School of Music and a highly experienced professional singer, singing teacher and choral conductor.
All voices welcome, especially tenors and basses. Do you think you could join us?
For more information please contact Duncan at dsdsaunderson@gmail.com
What Others say …
Choral Evensong is "One of England's richest heritages; a living tradition that costs precisely nothing to experience live" The Guardian
"I owe my entire career to my experience as a chorister … it was where I learnt to perform, where I learnt to use the full range of my voice; where I learnt to listen, where I learnt to write comedy - but most importantly it was where I learnt the wonderful truth that something exceptional, something as beautiful as anything anywhere, can be created just by you and your friends." Classic FM presenter, comedian and actor Alexander Armstrong
"Music was a huge part of my life growing up and created some very special memories for me. I still use many of the skills I learnt as a chorister today. Legendary cricketer Alastair Cook
"Peterborough gave me tremendous opportunities to find my voice … I touched excellence…you can apply it to other areas of your life" David Lammy, Peterborough Cathedral Chorister, barrister, MP and Foreign Secretary
"I do love choral music" Ian Hislop
"I loved choral singing" Sir Simon Russell Beale
"Scientists have researched the effects of group singing, and the results show benefits for mood, stress levels, and even the immune system". Harvard Medical School
