Amar Choral Scholar Singing in Jesus College Choir has been a highlight of my time at university. The opportunity to sing such a varied range of repertoire to a consistently high standard is very special, and as a Natural Sciences student something refreshing I can always look forward to after a day in labs and lectures. Not only does the choir provide access to a high level of music, but it also has a strong social aspect whereby a group of students come together and sing three or five times a week. This...

Lizzy Choral Scholar Singing in Jesus College Choir is an incredibly rewarding and enjoyable experience. I love singing beautiful music in an ancient chapel, and regular Evensong is a perfect break from my studies, allowing me to enjoy and focus on something different for a while. Being part of the Choir gives me some amazing opportunities and experiences, from tours abroad to free singing lessons and singing wonderful pieces such as Elgar’s Dream of Gerontius. These experiences will stay with me for the rest of my life. The Choir is friendly and welcoming... Read more
Vicky Choral Scholar I absolutely loved my years singing with Jesus. Having not previously sung with a chapel choir I was apprehensive at first about being unfamiliar with much of the music and traditions, however I was very quickly put at ease. The welcoming and friendly nature of the choir has not only made the time singing enjoyable, but it truly enhanced my experience at Cambridge. I feel I have also grown in confidence technically due to the provided fortnightly singing lessons. Not only has it been musically rewarding and provided many amazing... Read more
Vicky Chapel secretary Having been a Chapel secretary for nearly three years, I can now look back on that experience as one of the highlights of my undergraduate life. I've been able to serve the Chapel community in really practical ways, mostly lighting candles before services, operating lights and sound, reading from the Bible during evensongs, and stewarding for larger services. Much of this has helped me in my own walk of faith, and even when we're on duty, the Chapel still provides a great space for prayer and contemplation. The Chapel is... Read more
