'Worcester Cathedral Voluntary Choir' is a voluntary choir based at Worcester Cathedral. Worcester is just about unique among English Cathedrals in having a secondary choir of the same make-up as the main cathedral choir of boys and men. The Worcester Cathedral Voluntary Choir was founded in October 1874, and is at the moment around twenty boys and eighteen men. The Choir is affiliated to the Royal School of Church Music, and boys are regularly RSCM award holders.
The boys currently range in age from six to fourteen and come from a wide variety of schools and backgrounds, both inside and outside Worcestershire. The choristers are trained to be proficient and confident musicians, and to perform to a professional standard, while taking part in the English Choral Tradition. They learn to work together as a team, and develop skills that will help them at school and also in their future lives.
The choir normally sings the 6:30pm service, or occasionally one of the other Sunday services as well as special services including the Christmas Midnight Eucharist and Carol Services, and also regularly joins with the Cathedral Choir and the Cathedral Chamber Choir.
