Overview
Christ Church Cathedral Choir launches its 500th anniversary celebrations in a programme that showcases the rich musical legacy of a unique Foundation – jointly Oxford’s Cathedral and a College of the University – from its beginnings with John Taverner, appointed by Cardinal Wolsey as the first Informator Choristarum, to more recently associated musicians and composers.
