About This Event

On 30 November 2026, the Cambridge Schola will gather within the ancient stone walls of Great St Mary's to present a service steeped in the sound of British baroque tradition. This ensemble, renowned for interpreting early music and carols such as 'The First Nowell', brings together works by masters like William Byrd and Thomas Tallis to fill the University Church with resonant harmony. The performance offers an intimate auditory experience where centuries of musical heritage are carefully woven into the atmospheric acoustics of Cambridge's historic cathedral. Admission is free, allowing audiences to witness this dedicated revival of traditional repertoire without charge.
