We're delighted to announce that the ​Lincoln College Chapel Choir will be going on tour in France from 29 July until 6 August. Concert tickets are free (suggested donation) and there is no registration required to attend.

The current programme, which is subject to change, includes the following dates:

Sunday 30 July – Evensong/small concert in Rouen (venue and times tbc)
Monday 31 July at 5pm – Major concert in Rouen at Saint Ouen Abbey. Works by Bach, Walton, Mahler and more.

Thursday 3 August 7pm – Major concert at Basilique Saint-Sernin, Toulouse. Works by Bach, Walton, Mahler and more.

One of the finest mixed-voice chapel choirs at the University, the Lincoln College Chapel Choir gives talented singers the opportunity to make music in the intimate setting of Lincoln College’s seventeenth century chapel. With 20-25 undergraduate and graduate members, it is now one of very few Oxford and Cambridge choirs run exclusively by the undergraduate organ scholars - currently Matthew Foster and Elinor Hanton - who audition, conduct and accompany the singers.

To find out more about the Choir and purchase their CD, Trésors du Paradis - which received a 4-star review from the BBC Music Magazine - please visit their website.
