Summer Academy
Our summer academy courses are a very special, week-long immersion in Cambridge choral life, singing in a range of college chapels under different directors. We’ll enjoy beautiful Evensongs and tranquil Complines with a repertoire of exquisite music spanning chant, psalmody, renaissance polyphony, luminous masterpieces of the 20th century and choral music from living composers. A week in Cambridge wouldn’t be complete without tasting wines from the college cellars, punting and a pint in the famous Eagle pub… join us?
Our Singing Retreats offer the chance to spend a nurturing weekend in a Cambridge college, singing, relaxing, learning and meeting new friends in the glorious surroundings of the chapels and gardens. Great music, great food and great company await you!
