1 New College Oxford Chapel Services Trinity Term 2018

2 Welcome to New College chapel. Music and worship have been at the heart of the college since 1379, when William of Wykeham founded the college for the increase of divine worship as well as the growth of the Liberal Arts, Sciences and branches of learning. Today chapel services gather students, staff and fellows to mark key moments in the academic year, and serve as a respite from the busy life of term. A few services are particularly for members of the college, but most are open to all, and all are welcome. This booklet includes the music for each service, and can be used alongside the Evensong card and Sung Eucharist booklet; but chapel services ask very little of those who come through the door, as the combined voices of the choir raise our pleas to God, and we are merely invited to be still in this place where prayer has been valid for many centuries. Whether you are a person of strong faith or none, a member of college or a first-time visitor, may you find peace and light in your time here. ~~~ The Revd Dr Erica Longfellow Dean of Divinity, New College The Organist, Robert Quinney, is always happy to hear of potential choristers in school Years 1 and 2, and auditions all candidates for choristerships. Formal auditions take place in January for boys in year 2 for the choir s probationer programme which starts in year 3. The Chorister Open Day on 9 June provides an introduction to chorister life and to New College School, where choristers receive generous bursaries. The Organist also welcomes contact with senior school musicians interested in applying for a choral award in New College. The Sixth-Form Singing Scheme offers young singers an opportunity to sing Evensong during University Term and to talk to choir staff and current choral scholars. All information about choristerships and choral scholarships, as well as the Music List, Term Card, and details of concerts and recordings, can be found on the choir s website For more details and to contact the Organist, please the Chapel Administrator on nancy-jane.rucker@new.ox.ac.uk. Organ recitals This term the pattern of organ recitals changes: they take place weekly, on Saturdays shortly after the end of Evensong. If you wish to attend the recital, please stay in your seat. Programmes will be distributed before the recital is announced.
