Durham Cathedral Choir Association

In keeping with the great tradition of English Cathedral music there has been a choir at Durham for over six hundred years. This almost unbroken tradition of praising God in music continues to the present day. Evensong is sung in the cathedral every day of the week except Monday, and there are three choral services each Sunday.

LATEST NEWS

Musical event for the launch of the latest CD

James Lancelot has made a new recording of Mendelssohn's Six Organ Sonatas. The CD is being launched on Wednesday 23 May at 6pm in the Cathedral immediately after the service of Evensong.

Everyone is welcome to come and hear James Lancelot perform one of the sonatas and give a short talk about the composer, the making of the CD and the pieces themselves. This unique opportunity to hear James both play and speak is free and is followed by refreshments in the Cathedral Shop where the CD will be on sale with James available to sign copies.

Please see the original announcement and more information here.

The DCCA is a registered charity. Our purpose is to support the provision of Sacred Choral Music provided by the organists, by Durham Cathedral Choir, and by Durham Cathedral Consort of Singers, at Durham Cathedral or elsewhere, thus helping to ensure that its tradition is maintained and developed as part of the Cathedral’s worship and heritage.
