We're searching for the next generation of Frideswides!

If you know a young singer who would benefit from the life-changing opportunities of choristership, we'd love to hear from them! Our application deadline is Thu 12 June.

Much as we’d like Weelkes to have written a Star Wars-themed set of canticles, this is actually his sixth set. Maybe a good new moniker, though?!
