The Choir of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge

**The Choir of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge** is a vibrant ensemble rooted in the centuries-old choral tradition of Cambridge University. Based at Sidney Sussex College’s historic chapel, the group blends academic rigor with expressive musicianship, specializing in sacred choral works spanning Renaissance polyphony to contemporary compositions. Under the direction of their choirmaster, they maintain a busy schedule of chapel services, concerts, and recordings—like their recent dive into Jacquet of Mantua’s motets or their exploration of Jheronimus Vinders’ intricate Mass settings.

Known for their crisp, luminous sound, the choir balances scholarly precision with emotional depth, whether reviving lesser-known Renaissance gems (check out their *Vinders* album) or breathing new life into English choral classics like William Croft’s *Burial Service*. Their releases, such as *Polyphonia in Excelsis* featuring Claudio Dall’Albero’s sacred works, showcase their knack for blending reverence with fresh energy. When they’re not recording or performing Evensong, you might catch them touring or collaborating with other early music specialists—keeping Cambridge’s choral legacy very much alive.
