Canterbury Cathedral Chorister Concerts

In addition to their regular performances at the Cathedral, the Canterbury Cathedral Choristers perform at venues (mainly local churches) on a Saturday eve approximately once a month.  They are pupils at St Edmund’s Junior School, Canterbury.

Music Outreach

St Edmund's Music Department has a number of ongoing partnerships with local musical groups.  These include:

St Edmund’s Choral Society which meets every Thursday in the Lent term. This is open to the local community, particularly parents and friends of the school.

St Edmund’s Music Staff also work with/run outside groups:

The Oyster Singers of Whitstable

Whitstable Choral Society

Kent Festival Junior & Senior Piano Classes

University of Kent Big Band

East Kent Children's Orchestra

St Edmund's offers the opportunity for pupils of senior school age in local maintained schools to join the St Edmund's Symphony Orchestra (SESO) or junior school age pupils to join the East Kent Children's Orchestra.  Pupils benefit from expert support and teaching from St Edmund's staff and from performance opportunities during the school year.
