The Chapel and Choirs of Jesus College

Jesus College, founded in 1496 by John Alcock, Bishop of Ely, as The College of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Saint John the Evangelist, and the Glorious Virgin Saint Radegund, has a long and rich tradition of church music. The Chapel served as the church of the nunnery which preceded the College, and parts of the building date back to the twelfth century. The Book of Common Prayer, devised by Thomas Cranmer, a resident member of the College in the sixteenth century, continues to be used in the Chapel.

The College is distinctive in maintaining two choirs, each of which typically sings two services per week in term time:

The Chapel Choir dates back to the foundation of College and was re-founded in 1849, when provision was made for ‘six singing boys’ to adorn the worship of the newly-restored chapel. Since then, trebles from all over Cambridge have volunteered to sing for College services. The College does not maintain a choir school, but instead recruits boy choristers from a wide range of local schools.

The College Choir, formed in 1982 following the admission of women students, has female undergraduates singing the soprano line (and alto line, alongside male countertenors). The adult male singers form the ‘back row’ for both choirs. Each choir has developed a distinctive reputation and repertoire, whilst combining for key events and large-scale projects. In addition to the weekly schedule of choral services, members of the choirs enjoy concerts, recordings, broadcasts and foreign tours and the College Choir is proud of its ongoing educational work, running singing workshops with underprivileged children in India and Sri Lanka.

The Chapel has three organs: the Sutton Organ, located closest to the Altar, dates from the mid 19th century and was given to the College by Sir John Sutton. The designs on the panels are by Pugin. This instrument was restored and returned to its original 1849 state by William Drake in 2012. In 2007, the 33-stop Hudleston Organ was installed by Orgelbau Kuhn of Switzerland, and in 2010, the College commissioned the Rawlinson Organ, a three-stop chamber organ by Kenneth Tickell of Northampton. A 2006 Steinway concert grand piano and a two-manual harpsichord built in 2012 by Bruce Kennedy are also housed in the Chapel.

The College Prayer

O everlasting God, who through many generations hast blessed the college which bears the name of Jesus, grant that we, its latest sons and daughters, may be fortified and clad in his raiment, and may by grace keep Jesus in our hearts, through him who lived and died

for us, the same Jesus Christ our Lord.
