About

Choral music has always played a significant and central role at Belfast Cathedral, since its consecration in 1904. This strong choral tradition continues to this day with the recently formed all-adult, fully professional vocal ensemble.

This ‘new’ cathedral choir brings together some of the finest singers in Northern Ireland who lead the liturgy and worship of Belfast Cathedral and are featured here in their debut album for Resonus Classics.

Featuring a varied programme of seasonal carols from composers including Elizabeth Poston, John Rutter and Philip Ledger, this album celebrates Christmas from Northern Ireland’s national cathedral.

Reviews

Matthew Owens’s arrival at St Anne’s Cathedral, Belfast in 2019 signalled a new departure for music-making in the building, with the establishment of a professional adult choir to lead services. It is 16 voices strong and, on the evidence of A Belfast Christmas, an ensemble of high quality. ... The choir’s tonal purity and impeccable tuning are a pleasure...   Terry Blain
