Cambridge Choral Academy Summer School
Join the Cambridge Choral Academy for a six-day course immersed in glorious music and all the delights that Cambridge colleges have to offer!
Our **Choral Summer School** invites you to immerse yourself in a week of vocal excellence, exploring the theme of **LOVE** through powerful settings of the _Songs of Solomon_ and other works celebrating love in all its forms.
Live, sing, and unwind in the iconic surroundings of **King’s and St Catharine’s College, Cambridge**, with rehearsals and performances in some of the most breathtaking chapels in the world.
It’s a chance to level up your singing, meet incredible people, and spend a week living and performing in gorgeous Cambridge chapels under world-class directors. Candle-lit services, talks and workshops, vocal health sessions, a formal dinner, a chauffeured punt down the River Cam, a choral wine-tasting evening – good music, good friends, good times!
Entry requirements
If you’re an experienced choral singer with good note-reading ability, this is the course for you! We seek to create a balanced chamber choir, with places capped at 30-40 places depending on the college. In order to achieve a balance of voices, we welcome applications throughout the year, and we will assess them on 31 January 2027, with a further review to balance voice parts on 31 May 2027. Please note: all CCA courses involve walking between colleges to experience different college chapels. Due to the age of this historic city, there are cobbles and steps to navigate, which may be difficult for those with mobility issues.
