Releases

The Choir is known to millions of listeners across the globe through its impressive catalogue of over 100 recordings. Since its first release in 1959, the Choir's output has spanned centuries of musical composition and received critical acclaim under successive Directors of Music.

In 2016, the College launched its very own 'St John's Cambridge' label in partnership with Signum Records. The label releases brand new recordings by the Choir of St John's as well as students and alumni of the College.

The label has received critical acclaim, receiving a BBC Music Magazine Award in 2017 for its debut release, DEO. The Choir's latest recording - The Tree - features a selection of live recordings that play with the idea of growth, starting with the single treble line of Hildegard of Bingen’s O pastor animarum before gradually adding organ, lower voices, a second choir, 150 additional singers, and finally combining nearly 500 voices together.
