About Ex Cathedra

Hailed as “one of Britain’s very best choirs” (New York Times), Ex Cathedra is a world-class vocal ensemble which leads the choral sector in the fields of performance, learning and wellbeing. For more than 50 years, we have produced highly-acclaimed concerts and participatory projects in schools and hospitals, and nurtured young musicians from our youth choirs to our student and graduate training schemes. Founded by Jeffrey Skidmore OBE, Ex Cathedra is an Associate Artist at Symphony Hall and Town Hall, promotes concerts across the Midlands, and has appeared across the UK and abroad. The choir has recorded Gramophone Award-winning and Grammy-nominated CDs, music from the Latin American Baroque, and albums by composers Liz Dilnot Johnson, Roxanna Panufnik, and Alec Roth. We believe that singing is for everyone, and that singing together transforms individuals into communities, boosts wellbeing, builds confidence, teamwork and empathy. We have worked in over 1,000 schools across the UK, in Belgium, China, New Zealand, Singapore and Thailand, and lead the government-funded singing strategy for local authority schools in Birmingham.
