The Choir was formed in 1986 initially to provide a choir for Midnight Eucharist on Christmas Eve, but since Then we have become an established part of The Wells CaThedral scene, and now sing 40 to 50 of The regular services throughout The year, as well as some of The festival services which include a Requiem Mass on All Soul’s Day. We are an amateur auditioned choir of 30 and strive for a high standard, so for potential members it is important to have a reasonable sight-singing ability.

At The wall's base The fiery nettle springs, With fruit globose and fierce with poison'd stings; In every chink delights The fern to grow, With glossy leaf and tawny bloom below: The few dull flowers that o'er The place are spread Partake The nature of Their fenny bed. These, with our sea-weeds, rolling up and down, Form The contracted flora of our town.  less
