The Girls' Choir is the longest established choir of its type in an English Catholic cathedral. Acknowledged as ranking amongst the finest of cathedral girls' choirs, they have broadcast nationally many times on BBC Television and Radio to considerable critical acclaim. Colin Mawby has written a new Latin setting of the Magnificat for the choir to complement their existing repertoire for Vespers.
As with the boys' choir, places are available by audition. Girls are normally expected to learn at least one instrument and/or take regular singing lessons. The girls are aged eight to 16 and sing three services each week at the Cathedral.
