Stanford in Westminster Abbey

G511HB Master of the Choristers James O'Donnell with the Choir of Westminster Abbey during Evensong at Westminster Abbey, central London, after it was announced that they have been invited by Pope Benedict XVI to sing alongside the Sistine Chapel Choir at St Peter's in Rome.

At our September Evensong we’ll be singing Stanford’s G major setting of the Magnificat and Nunc dimittis. There is talk that this may be the setting we sing for our appearance in Westminster Abbey (pictured) on 30 December, as part of our forthcoming choir tour … but if you’re not sure you can make it to that one, come along to Pilgrim on Saturday, 10 September, at 5pm!
