Guildford Cathedral Choir is a renowned English cathedral choir, based in the town of Guildford, Surrey, with a rich history rooted in the Anglican choral tradition. Known for their distinctive sound and high standards of performance, the choir forms an integral part of the worship at Guildford Cathedral. Comprised of trebles, altos, tenors, and basses, the choir includes both professional singers and choristers who are often drawn from the local community, including children who receive a specialized musical education as part of their involvement.

With a repertoire spanning from time-honored hymns to contemporary choral works, Guildford Cathedral Choir has produced a significant discography that showcases their versatility and dedication to choral excellence. Some of their most recent releases include "As the Leaves Fall," which offers a reflective and emotive selection of seasonal anthems, and "Christmas Carols from Guildford Cathedral," where the choir brings to life the spirit of Christmas through timeless carols. "The Glory of Guildford Cathedral" and "Great Cathedral Anthems, Vol. 1" both exemplify the choir's ability to handle the grandeur of traditional anthems, while "Creator Spirit - A 20th Century Choral Anthology" demonstrates their adeptness at interpreting more modern compositions. The Choir's "Carols at Christmas" and "The Choir Of Guildford Presents… Carols At Christmas" have become staples for audiences seeking the warmth of familiar melodies during the festive season. Through both their live performances and recorded works, Guildford Cathedral Choir remains a beacon of the British choral scene, inviting listeners to experience moments of tranquility and transcendence with every note.
