ALT A stunning (if we do say so ourselves) view of St John's from the top of the College's Chapel Tower. It was taken at dusk so some windows are illuminated across the historic College site.

Before the days of CD! @gentsofstjohns at St Leonard's holding a rare piece of history (carefully!) in their hands. The first ever recording in 1927 on a shellac gramophone record of @SJCchoir 'Have Mercy upon Me' by William Byrd with viol accompaniment.

There are no words to adequately describe last night's concert from @gentsofstjohns We were privileged to witness such extraordinary talent, where we soared to the heights of heaven, tugged at our heart-strings and danced with joy! A night we shall never forget!

@gentsofstjohns just had a fantastic time listening to the Gents at Christ College, Brecon. Taken away to different emotions on the wings of their voices. Thank you all. Best of luck to those graduating and moving on this year.

Essential preparation for the @stjohnscam Ascension Day Service, 2022 & 2023
with @ANethsingha & Chris Gray

The Choir of St John's College at the University of Cambridge perform the Ascension Day carol from the top of the Chapel Tower. The custom dates back to 1902 and a debate about whether singing from the tower could be heard from the ground below
