Diamond Jubilee Choir Service

This week's blog

The spectacle of the Jubilee weekend was not absent from the minds of Cambridge students, fellows, staff and other members of the community, although it was unfortunate that this Jubillee-tide fell in the heaviest part of University exams! The result was most likely a small amount of celebration (small relative to the rest of the country) and a chance for us to preempt the Jubilee service at St Paul's today with Parry's I was glad on Sunday evening. This week's webcast however comes from the evening before and includes Come, Holy Ghost by Jonathan Harvey (matriculated at St John's in 1957), an Honorary Fellow of the College, as the anthem. Meanwhile we're looking forward to this coming Saturday, when over 250 members of the Choir Association are coming to College for the annual Garden Party, including former members of the Choir, its supporters and their families.
