Following his acclaimed performance earlier this season as our guest conductor for the Mozart Requiem and Haydn’s Nelson Mass, Andrew Nethsingha returns to Saint Thomas Church with his own choral group – The Choir of St. John’s College, Cambridge. Founded in the 1670’s and today one of the finest men and boys’ choirs in the world, the ensemble’s distinctive ‘St. John’s sound’ is known and loved by millions from its recordings, broadcasts and concert tours.
