After being crowned Mixed National Choir of the Year in 2024, Sedbergh School is delighted to announce that the Chapel Choir has once again reached the Grand Final of the Barnardo’s National Choir Competition, which will take place this March. This marks a particularly exciting achievement as we begin our 500th anniversary celebrations in 2025.
This year’s Chapel Choir brings a fresh dynamic and energy, distinct from the group that achieved so much success last year. Their talent and dedication have shone through in every performance, demonstrating the school’s enduring commitment to nurturing musical excellence.
John Seymour, Director of Creative Arts at Sedbergh School, said:
“This is a wonderful achievement for our Chapel Choir and a fitting way to begin our milestone year. Their hard work and passion for music exemplify the creative spirit of Sedbergh School. We are so proud of their success and look forward to supporting them in the final.”
