Experience Ex Cathedra
Ex Cathedra is one of the UK’s leading choral groups, renowned for its innovative programming and historically informed performances. Founded in 1969 by Jeffrey Skidmore, the Birmingham-based choir quickly established a reputation for tackling challenging and often overlooked repertoire, particularly from the Baroque and Renaissance periods.
Unlike many traditional choirs, Ex Cathedra consistently commissions new works, fostering a vibrant connection between contemporary composers and choral tradition. Their discography boasts over 25 recordings on labels like Naxos and Hyperion, earning numerous accolades including a Gramophone Award for Best Choral Album (2018) for their recording of Vaughan Williams’ *Mass in G minor*.
The ensemble isn't limited to purely sacred music; they frequently explore secular works and cross-genre collaborations. Ex Cathedra is also highly regarded for its education work, running extensive outreach programs and workshops. Jeffrey Skidmore stepped down as Director in 2023, handing the baton to James Weeks, continuing the choir’s commitment to artistic excellence and accessibility. They regularly perform at major UK festivals and concert halls.
