The Collect for Christmas Eve and Blessing

As a jewel in the crown of Cornwall’s arts scene, Truro Cathedral Choir broadcasts regularly on television and radio, presents concerts throughout the year, and records for the acclaimed record label Regent.

The choir dates back to the 1880s when services took place in a wooden shed whilst John Loughborough Pearson’s magnificent Gothic Revival cathedral was still under construction.

Today, the choir consists of eighteen boy choristers, eighteen girl choristers, and twelve adult professional singers. All organise their lives around the choir’s busy schedule of commitments which has at its heart seven sung services each week during term time.

Our performances are regularly attended by music lovers from all backgrounds and we invite you to join us at one of our services or concerts, or to listen to our broadcasts, webcasts and recordings!
