  • REACHING out a Celebration of the Work of the Choir Schools’ Association
    REACHING OUT A celebration of the work of the Choir Schools’ Association The Choir Schools’ Association represents 46 schools attached to cathedrals, churches and college chapels educating some 25,000 children. A further 13 cathedral foundations, who draw their choristers from local schools, hold associate membership. In total CSA members look after nearly 1700 boy and girl choristers. Some schools cater for children up to 13. Others are junior schools attached to senior schools through to 18. Many are Church of England but the Roman Catholic, Scottish and Welsh churches are all represented. Most choir schools are independent but five of the country’s finest maintained schools are CSA members. Being a chorister is a huge commitment for children and parents alike. In exchange for their singing they receive an excellent musical training and first-class academic and all-round education. They acquire self- discipline and a passion for music which stay with them for the rest of their lives.

  • Bishop Robert Beal
    1 Funeral Address given by The Rev'd. Donald McMonigle Sometime Dean of Wangaratta. Bishop Robert Beal “Any man that but man is, With nothing shall be pleas’d, til he be eas’d With being nothing.” Shakespeare Richard II As a king divests himself of his kingly regalia, his crown, his sceptre and the balm used to anoint him at his coronation, and then stripped bare, prepares to confront his end, Shakespeare verbalises Richard’s inner thoughts and grief’s with these words which within a wider context, remain a fundamental teaching of all the great spiritual traditions. A man with nothing shall be pleas’d, til he be eas’d With being nothing.” It is a hard saying - particularly as we grieve the loss of our friend, but if we take our Lord’s words seriously this is what the Christian journey is all about. It is that great movement from I to Thou, the acknowledgement of the need for one another and ultimately, our need for God. It is what dying to self is all about. It is not just about self-denial and acts of mortification; rather, it is a positive dynamic movement to becoming whole. Robert’s life as a husband, father, priest and bishop and above all, as a human being, has exemplified this journey. “Unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies it remains alone but if it dies it bears much fruit.” We have heard something of Robert’s family life from Frances and Christopher but it is in his life as pastor in both priestly and Episcopal ministry that Robert not only proclaimed this mystery but has consistently and faithfully incarnated this great truth.

  • NEWCASTLE CATHEDRAL CHORISTERS About Us
    NEWCASTLE CATHEDRAL CHORISTERS About us There is a unique opportunity in Newcastle for boys and girls that enjoy singing and making music. Being a Cathedral Chorister is an invaluable musical education which is completely free of charge, and choristers receive tuition and musical training worth at least £1000 per year. The Cathedral Choristers each recieve individual tuition from our Vocal Coach. Each Chorister also receives a small bursary from the Cathedral in recognition of their commitment to the choir. The Cathedral Choir tours regularly and this has included services and concerts in Sweden (2008), Paris (2010 and 2015) and Winchester (2012). The choir also records CDs and broadcasts on the radio from time to time. As well as providing musical education for life, being a chorister can help increase a child’s self-esteem, concentration and communication skills. It can also be an aid to children’s development in literacy and numeracy. Boy Choristers Being a chorister is a team activity. The boys have great fun and enjoy making music together. The choir is for boys age 7 upwards. They rehearse and sing services, three times a week. In addition they take part in external events such as the Patronal Festival at Durham Cathedral. There are many extra opportunities, both to sing with groups like the Northern Sinfonia at The Sage and to meet socially or compete at sport with other choirs in the region, such as Carlisle Cathedral and Hexham Abbey. Girl Choristers Because the girls choir has a large age range, there is a caring and nurturing environment in which the older girls help to welcome the newest members.

  • From: the Dean the Very Revd Nicholas Henshall
    From: The Dean The Very Revd Nicholas Henshall 9 June 2020 CHELMSFORD CATHEDRAL RE-OPENING Chelmsford Cathedral is re-opening for personal prayer and reflection on 4th July and will then be open every day from 11 am to 3 pm. The Dean writes: I am delighted to announce that Chelmsford Cathedral is re-opening for personal prayer and reflection on 4th July. The Cathedral will then be open daily from 11 am to 3 pm. This is a great moment, and it is important to stress that is just a first step. Public worship will not resume for some time to come, but it has been wonderful to welcome so many joining us on-line for the daily prayer. That will continue to be streamed live on Facebook at 7.45 am and 5.15 pm every day, with the Eucharist streamed on Sundays at 10.30 am. From 4th July the interior of the Cathedral will be laid out in a different way. This is to comply fully with guidance from the Government and from the Church of England. We are determined to ensure that everyone who visits the Cathedral can do so in full confidence that it is a safe and secure environment. A one-way system will be in operation through the Cathedral, with everyone entering through the South Door and leaving through the North Door. There will be handwash at the door which everyone must use, and certain areas will not accessible, including the vestry block. Any seating in the Cathedral will be appropriately distanced, and every chair will be cleaned after every use, in accordance with the guidelines.
