Brompton Oratory Choir in Concert
The London Oratory Schola Cantorum Boys Choir, under the direction of Charles Cole, will offer a free choral concert with works of Byrd, Tallis, Victoria, Monteverdi, and Bruckner. One of the most prominent Catholic ensembles in the world, the Schola is comprised of boys who study at London’s Oratory School and sings every weekend in term at the famous Brompton Oratory. The choir can be heard on the Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter soundtracks and recently recorded Sacred Treasures of England, a CD of Tudor music on the Sony Classical label. Touring frequently, the Schola sang at High Mass in St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome and was the first visiting choir in history to sing at Vespers there in 2013.
