Sir John Stainer was trained in the English cathedral choral tradition of choirboy, university organist, bachelor and doctor of music, and organist at St. Paul’s cathedral. He wrote a number of choral works of which Crucifixion is probably the most widely performed along with a number of regularly-performed Christmas carols. Last year’s Come Sing, featuring Handel’s Messiah raised £2850 towards paying off the debt on Chester cathedrals’ magnificent Song School. This debt has now been settled, but our efforts are now centred on raising funds for the planned re-building of the cathedral organ. We look forward to welcoming you and your friends and family.
