Yesterday evening, St John's Voices came together to make music again for the first time since news broke of the college's proposal to disband the choir at the end of this academic year. Just listen to that sound... and from their first rehearsal of term, no less! 🤩

Great article from
@VarsityUK
about St John's Voices and the importance of choral music for students, written by Emily Kelly:
'Disbanding a choir with such a far-reaching impact, even in favour of creating other opportunities, is a tremendous shame...'

Tonight we sing alongside the College Choir for the last time. We have so valued their friendship over the years and look forward to one final joint service together.

Join SJV tonight for another wonderful Evensong. During the stressful exam season, what better way could there be to reflect and find solace?
All are welcome.

Tonight’s Evensong features the glorious Faire is the Heaven with words by Edmund Spenser set to music by William Henry Harris. This and other delights await at 6:30pm in the Chapel.

Tonight’s Evensong sounds unmissable. A new composition by one of the members of SJV, the barnstorming Walton Chichester Service, and the ebullient Coelos ascendit hodie.
All welcome!

St John's Voices sing 'Nïne otpushchayeshi' (Nunc dimittis) from Rachmaninov's 'All-Night Vigil', recorded just hours before the group was told of its impending disbandment. The loss of this choir would be a devastation.

"I hoped fervently that this wasn’t ideologically driven, but depressingly it would appear that in part at least it is." We are so grateful to
@amwilson_opera
for this brilliant article highlighting some of the flaws made by
@stjohnscam
in their decision to disband SJV.
Disbanding St John’s Voices would be a terrible mistake, argues
@amwilson_opera
. Now is the time to defend our great choral tradition
