The choristers sing weekday evensong during term time in the splendour of Tewkesbury Abbey. This is open to everyone and we warmly invite our extended community to attend. There is a huge programme of services and concerts throughout the year and many parents, grandparents and past parents attend. In addition, each year there is a special Evensong for the Dean Close community.
To find out more about the chorister programme of events and join the mailing list, please contact the Administrator Jane Lyons at jlyons@deanclose.org.uk
Community Evensong 2011
Our annual Community Evensong took place at Tewkesbury Abbey on a lovely early summer's evening. The Headmasters and Headmistress from all three Schools were joined with pupils, staff, parents, grandparents, ODs and friends to hear the Choristers sing Stanford in G and Blessed City, Heavenly Salem by Edward Bairstow.
A drinks and canapes reception for all followed in the impressive surroundings of the Abbot's Parlour at the Abbey House. It was particulary special to welcome back former choristers, particulary those who attended the Abbey School before it closed and the choristers were moved to Dean Close.
"What a wonderful opportunity to simply soak up the atmosphere of the Abbey and listen to the boys' heavenly voices."
