St. James Cathedral

Read Profile

The Choir of St. James Cathedral includes both professional and experienced amateur singers. Singing for both choral Eucharist and evensong, it also presents an annual concert in May, and a performance of Messiah in December, both with orchestra. The Advent and Christmas carol services are always very popular.

Organ recitals on the large 5100 pipe organ are presented each week of the year, normally on Tuesdays at 1pm.

St. James Cathedral also supports an artist-in-residence. The position, an annual appointment, is presently held by Silas Friesen, a young composer and instrumentalist.

All enquiries about our music may be directed to Thomas Bell, Director of Music at tbell@stjamescathedral.ca.
