Wednesdays
The Choir of Royal Holloway will continue with free, weekly concert series in due course.
The 30-minute performances are free of charge and informal, allowing people to come and go as their schedule allows. Programmes are varied with different themes each week featuring both sacred and secular music.
Concerts take place most Wednesday lunchtimes during term time, 1.15-1.45pm, in the Chapel at Royal Holloway. No need to book tickets; just turn up. More information, and detail of programmes for each week, can be found on the choir website: www.chapelchoir.co.uk.
The Choir of Royal Holloway is considered to be one of the finest university choirs in Britain. The choir was created at the time of the foundation of Royal Holloway College in 1886, and was originally only for women’s voices. The group, comprised of 24 choral scholars and 2 organ scholars, is directed by Rupert Gough and undertakes a busy schedule of weekly services and concerts, international tours, recordings and live broadcasts. Royal Holloway is the only university that maintains a tradition of singing daily morning services, and is home to the only choir in the country performing weekly live streamed concerts.
