About this Event
Join us to mark the season of Remembrance with the Schola Cantorum of Ampleforth College as they perform Faure's Requiem in the inspiring setting of Ampleforth Abbey. Join us on November 8, 2026 at 4:00 PM.
The Schola Cantorum of Ampleforth College was established in 1970 at the request of Basil Hume to help preserve the singing of music written for the Roman Catholic Church, along with the best examples from other traditions, in the context for which it was written: the celebration of Mass. This remains the at the very heart of the Schola’s mission. In addition, the choirs sing meditations at key moments in the Liturgical Year and are joined by professional soloists and orchestras for oratorios. There is an annual performances of Handel’s Messiah at Christmas and Fauré’s Requiem near the Feast of All Souls. Bach’s St John and St Matthew Passion, Britten’s Ceremony of Carols and Haydn’s Creation have all been performed in recent years.
