The Choir of Selwyn College, Cambridge
in Concert
St Bride’s Church, Fleet Street, London
Wednesday 10 July
Join us for an early evening concert by Selwyn College Choir on the eve of their annual summer tour.
Christopher Wren’s magnificent St Bride’s was built in 1672. Its famous tower, said to be the inspiration for the wedding cake, is the second tallest of all Wren’s churches, with only St Paul’s itself having a higher pinnacle.
The fine acoustic offered by the church ensures that it’s regularly used for orchestral and choral concerts throughout the year.
The evening’s programme is as follows, and will offer an opportunity to hear our fine choir in delightful surroundings.
