All past choristers of Christ Church Cathedral are invited to participate in the Sunday services which the Past Choristers Association will sing onSunday August 25. Well known favourite music to be sung will include for the Eucharist in the morning: Stanford in C & F and the Mozart ‘Ave verum corpus’, while at Evensong in the afternoon the music will include Morley’s ‘Fauxbourdons’ and Brahms’ ‘How lovely are thy dwellings fair’.
