SUMMARY:Tour of the Triforium of St Paul's
DESCRIPTION:Most Livery Members\, after a while\, would describe themselves as fairly familiar with our great Cathedral. After all\, it is effectively the City Civic’s “parish church” (For a start\, there is nothing else locally\, which is big enough to fit us all in!) and there are services and concerts there\, throughout the year. \nHowever\, what we routinely see\, down at floor level\, is by no means all that Wren’s architectural triumph has to offer\, and so this June a party of up to 20 of us will be taken on a private tour of those parts of the Cathedral which the public seldom sees. \nOur guide will take us up to the Triforium and into the Library and the Trophy Room. We will also see the Great Model\, which played such a crucial role in the development of the building’s design and engineering during its construction. Then as a finale\, we will enjoy the spectacular view down from the top of the iconic Geometric Staircase and another down the nave\, from above the Great West Doors. \nThe tour will start at 2.30pm and last about an hour\, and for those feeling peckish\, the Master will lead a party to a nearby restaurant for a spot of lunch beforehand. \nTickets for the tour cost £39 each. Dress will be “smart casual”\, and the lunch will be publicised and billed separately\, for those who wish to attend.

SUMMARY:Clergy Support Trust - Festival 2025
DESCRIPTION:The 370th Festival will be held on Tuesday 13 May 2025\nThe Festival is a unique and extraordinary event. It celebrates the work of the Trust and the clergy households we serve\, with our generous supporters. \nOne of the oldest choral music events in the world\, bringing together three exceptional cathedral choirs\, the Festival Service at St Paul’s Cathedral is an afternoon of thanksgiving for the ministry of our clergy. The Lord Bishop of Chelmsford\, The Rt Revd Dr Guli Francis-Dehqani will preach. \nOur Festival is our biggest fundraising event of the year. A cash collection will be taken\, and Contactless Donation Points will be beside those of St Paul’s at the Cathedral doors. \nWe are delighted to introduce you to this year’s choirs\, joining us for what promises to be a majestic act of worship. \n\nBradford Cathedral Choir\nBradford Cathedral Choir have been part of the city’s choral community since well before St Peter’s Church became Bradford Cathedral\, over 100 years ago. There are two fully independent lines of boy and girl choristers\, drawn from schools throughout the region\, and a number of teenage Junior Choral Scholars. \nThe choir sings regularly for five services a week\, including compline on Thursday evenings\, undertakes regular tours\, gives concerts\, and occasionally makes recordings and broadcasts. Further collaborations are planned for 2025\, including with BBC television. The choir is led by their Organist and Director of Music\, Graham Thorpe. \nLichfield Cathedral Choir\nMade up of four discrete sections which form many different combinations – the Boy Choristers\, the Girl Choristers\, and the VI form Choral Scholars (all of whom attend the Cathedral School)\, and the Lay Vicars Choral – Lichfield Cathedral Choir is led by their Director of Music\, Ben Lamb and the Assistant Director of Music\, Martyn Rawles. \nDuring school term time\, the Choir usually sings seven services each week: Choral Compline on Monday\, Choral Evensong Tuesday to Friday\, and the Eucharist and Evensong on Sunday. The Choir also gives occasional concerts and recitals\, and has made frequent broadcasts\, both on television and radio. \nThe founding of the choir can be traced back to the early days of the current cathedral in the 13th century\, and we’re delighted that they’re making the 120-mile journey to perform for us at our historic 370th Festival Service this year. \nSt Paul’s Cathedral Choir\nBradford and Lichfield Cathedral Choirs will perform alongside St Paul’s Cathedral Choir – who have leant us their time and talent every year for over three centuries – led by their Director of Music\, Andrew Carwood MBE. Speaking on last year’s Festival Service\, Andrew said: \n“It is a rare and wonderful joy to work with such incredible choirs each year\, and even more so when you are part of an almost unbroken line of choirs singing together under the dome of St Paul’s stretching back over nearly 370 years.” \nThe choir have performed at some of the cathedral’s most important services – including their Grenfell Tower Memorial Service and their Service of Prayer and Reflection for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. \n\nJoin the Festival\nThe Festival Service is free to attend\, and will take place at St Paul’s Cathedral on Tuesday 13 May 2025\, 5pm. \nWe welcome over 1\,000 guests to the Festival each year – so there’s plenty of room for everyone! However\, while there may be tickets available on the day\, we recommend that you book ahead in advance to avoid disappointment.

SUMMARY:St Paul's Orchestral Mass
DESCRIPTION:Following the continued support of the Chartered Accountants Livery Charity\, WCCAEW members and guests are invited to attend a performance of Haydn’s Nelson Mass on Sunday 9 July at 11.15am\, followed by drinks in the Chapter House.\nThe St Paul’s Cathedral Choir and the City of London Sinfonia will perform Haydn’s Missa in angustiis at this Sung Eucharist.  This work which translates as ‘Mass for troubled times\,’ is one of the six masses written near the end of Joseph Haydn’s life.  Also known as the ‘Nelson Mass’ it was first performed in 1798. \nBased on a German tradition\, where every movement of a mass is performed with an orchestra\, this Orchestral Mass has become a well-established and popular highlight at St Paul’s Cathedral – proving a significant draw for worshippers and visitors alike. \n\nThe Covid pandemic had a hugely negative impact on St Paul’s Cathedral’s finances. Historically the Cathedral has been heavily reliant on visitor (especially tourist) income to provide 80% of the running costs. They have had to make significant financial savings since 2020 to sustain their operations\, including reducing their workforce by 25%\, and cutting back on some of their operations including reducing the activity of their famous Choir. \nSt Paul’s Cathedral’s traditional Orchestral Mass series of four performances is entirely subject to the Cathedral receiving funding. There were no such Masses in 2020 or 2021 and just one in 2022 which was only made possible thanks to the Chartered Accountants Livery Charity grant and our Music Patrons support. \n\nWhat can I expect?\nSung Eucharists is the high point of our weekly worship\, engaging the senses with sound\, colour and movement. This service includes choral and orchestral music\, hymn singing and a sermon\, \nDuring the service\, the congregation will be invited to share in the bread and wine. If you receive communion in your own church\, you are welcome to receive communion here. If you do not normally receive communion\, you are invited to come forward and receive a blessing. \nYou do not have to be a practicing member of the Church of England to attend the Eucharist. If you are unfamiliar with the service\, you can pick up an easy-to-follow order of service at the beginning\, which will guide you through each part. Visit our guidance on attending services at St Paul’s for more information on what to expect. \n\nReserve your place below\nThere are limited places available for the drinks reception in the Chapter House so these will be allocated on a first come\, first served basis. However\, there are unlimited places for the service. \n

SUMMARY:United Guilds Service
DESCRIPTION:SORRY: This event sold out in just four days! \nAt a meeting of the City’s Livery Companies in 1943\, it was decided to hold a Service in St Paul’s Cathedral\, to lift the spirits of the City after the Blitz\, which had only recently ended\, having wrought such devastation on the capital in particular. This has now become an annual event\, held in the presence of the Bishop of London\, the Lord Mayor\, Sheriffs and Aldermen\, and is one of the few occasions where the Liveries and Guilds all worship together. \nAdmission is by ticket only. We always take a party to the service\, usually using our full allocation of places. The service starts at 11.30am (though we have to be seated before then) and after it ends at about 12.30pm\, we and lots of other Liveries and Guilds walk the short distance to the lovely Plaisterers’ Hall for a drinks reception followed by what is always a pretty lively\, three-course Lunch. \nWe are usually allocated 23 places\, but I haven’t been told this year’s number. Members can bring one guest\, and bookings will be honoured on a first-come-first-served basis. \nThe UGS is naturally free (The Company makes a donation centrally\, and there is the usual collection during the service.)\, and places at the lunch afterwards cost £89 each\, inc Vat. \nSORRY: This event sold out in just four days!
