Cambridge Schola sings a service of Compline or Vespers every Monday evening. The contemplative mood of these services provides a beautiful way to finish the day. We sing in a different chapel or church each Monday, and these services are always open to the public and free of charge.

Cambridge Schola teams up with Jack's Gelato with luxury food for body and soul. Gelato, music and readings. What more could you ask for? In our first partnership with local Gelato legend, Cambridge Schola will sing music by Elgar, Gibbons, Britten and our composer in residence Tim Watts, on the themes of flowers and gardens. Readings will intersperse the music, and Jack's will bring gelato flavoured with ingredients from nearby College gardens. Cambridge Schola is grateful to Gonville & Caius College for allowing us to use their Fellows' Garden. Numbers are limited to 50, and booking is advised.
Free, strictly limited to 50.
