Birmingham University Liturgical Choir in Coventry Cathedral

Birmingham University Liturgical Choir is a scratch choir formed of singers from Birmingham University Singers, University Upper Voices, and the University Chamber Choir who come together once a term to prepare Evensong.

This term, the choir met on Sunday 15 February and travelled to The New Cathedral in Coventry. Under the direction of Dr Paul Rodmell, the choir sang pieces including Joubert’s O Lord, the maker of al thinge and Ellis’ Morland response setting with guest organist Callum Alger.

The choir will undertake two more visits this academic year, to Worcester Cathedral on the early May bank holiday, and to Hereford Cathedral during UoB Xtra week.
