Music in the Cathedral
The Wellington Cathedral of St Paul hosts frequent state services and events. Standing in the Parliamentary precinct the Cathedral is a visible symbol of the Anglican Church in New Zealand. The music and liturgy we provide is an important part of this function of the Cathedral.
The Cathedral currently has three highly-trained choirs, a young and enthusiastic music staff, and an ever-expanding reputation for musical excellence. The Cathedral is enriching in a unique way the spiritual, musical and cultural life of both city and nation.

Choir recordings
The most recent cathedral choir recording, 'Tidings', is a CD featuring music for Christmas. Nestled snugly among perennial carol favorites are works by 20th-century British choral masters, luminous modern American classics, and recently composed works by New Zealand composers Andrew Baldwin and Geoffrey Coker.
The disc is available for NZ$20 from the cathedral shop, and online at the organism online store.
