Our work relies on a range of schools, funders and supporters who share our vision. Without the generosity of these people our Programmes would not be possible. All donations received go towards growing our reach to children in the most disadvantaged areas of Yorkshire. We are committed to supporting wellbeing through music and enriching the communities in which we work.

Our morning sessions fill the school with beautiful singing that uplift all who hear it. The difference that has been made to the quality of the children’s singing, self-esteem and confidence is immeasurable.’

The Choirs of Leeds CathedralIt is our privilege to provide music at Leeds Cathedral, something we wish to share with as many local Catholic children as possible. We run 7 free choirs at the Cathedral, all singing regularly for Masses, Vespers or other Liturgies.Cathedral Children's Choir- our smallest singers aged 5-8 learn about music and faith in a fun and engaging way with regular opportunities to sing for Liturgy and be inspired by the older choristers.Cathedral Junior Boys and Junior Girls Choirs- children aged 7-11 can join our Junior choirs. Despite their young age they frequently take on responsibility for singing Mass as well as joining their older counterparts for joint events. (picture from their trip to Liverpool)Cathedral Senior Girls Choir- girls aged 10-18 sing with the Senior Girls Choir, singing multiple liturgies each week and taking a leading role in many concerts and broadcasts.Cathedral Senior Boys Choir- from age 8 until voice change boys sing treble with the Senior Boys Choir. We're particularly fortunate to have a thriving boys choir who sing several services a week and lead concerts and broadcasts alongside the Senior Girls.Schools Scholars- in contrast to many Cathedral choirs, our boys' choral journey doesn't end at voice change. All boys are encouraged to keep singing with the Schools Scholars, who provide the lower voices in our mixed choirs.Choral Scholars- a small core group of university aged singers who offer musical support to the choirs as well as getting opportunities to develop and singers and choral leaders themselves.If you would like more information on joining the choir please email: office@dioceseofleedsmusic.org.uk ...
