A concert will take place at Ripon Cathedral in April to mark the 30th anniversary of St Aidan’s Chamber Choir.

Ex-members of the choir, including Cathy Roberts, former director of music at St Aidan’s, who founded the choir in 1992, and Greg Beardsell, a founder member of the choir and now a professional conductor and TV presenter, have agreed to attend.

The concert, on April 2, will bring together all three of the school choirs, the symphony orchestra and a ‘choir of choirs’ made up of former members.

St Aidan’s Church of England High School in Harrogate has about 2,000 students. Its chamber choir is one of its best loved and prestigious musical ensembles.

The school said in a statement:

“We would like to invite the wider St Aidan’s community to participate as singers or players in the community chorus and orchestra for some massed items, including Haydn’s The Heavens are Telling.

The event is open to all parents, carers, staff, students and anyone else with a St Aidan’s connection.
