Alumni and their guests are warmly invited to attend a concert by the Choir of St John's College. The Choir of St John's College is one of the finest Collegiate choirs in the world, known and loved by millions from its broadcasts, concert tours and over 90 recordings.

Founded in the 1670s, the Choir is known for its distinctive rich, warm sound, its expressive interpretations and its breadth of repertoire. 

In May 2016 the College launched its new 'St John's Cambridge' recording label (in conjunction with Signum Classics) on which the Choir has released the BBC Music Magazine Award winning recording of Jonathan Harvey's music: DEO; Christmas with St John's and KYRIE.
