Artist Biography
The Trinity College Choir, Cambridge, has used several combinations of those words to name itself (Choir of Trinity College, Cambridge, Trinity College Choir). The choir is older than Trinity College itself, dating back to the establishment of King's Hall by King Edward in 1317. The choir now has 36 members, mostly students at Trinity College. Among the choir's distinguished alumni were Ralph Vaughan Williams and Charles Villiers Stanford, as well as various composers from the Tudor era. In the 1950s, director Raymond Leppard re-formed the choir as an all-male, all-student organization. The choir's profile grew higher after it began to admit women in 1982 under new director Richard Marlow. Stephen Layton is the music director. By 2023, when the group issued a collection of 20th and 21st century English anthems, its recording catalog comprised more than 60 releases.
