The Choir of Trinity College, Cambridge is a mixed choir whose primary function is to sing choral services in the Tudor chapel of Trinity College, Cambridge. The choir has taken various forms since its foundation, and has existed in its present form since 1982 when, shortly after the admission of females to the college, female voices were used for the first time for the choir’s top lines. Three regular services are sung per week in full University Term, and the choir sings Latin grace from the minstrels' gallery in the college’s Great Hall at a number of feasts. In addition, the choir undertakes projects outside term-time such as recordings, concerts, radio broadcasts and tours. The choir typically numbers between 25 and 35 members, most of whom are students in Trinity College. In January 2011, ''Gramophone'' named the choir the fifth best choir in the world.〔http://www.gramophone.co.uk/features/focus/composer-eric-whitacre-on-why-british-choirs-are-best〕 ==Directors of Music == The director of music is Stephen Layton, who succeeded Richard Marlow in September 2006. By statute, the Director of Music is also a Category A fellow of the college. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Choir of Trinity College, Cambridge」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
