Chorister Taster Day 2013
Registration is now open for our chorister open day on Saturday 7th September 2013. Following the success of last year’s event,
the Chapel Royal is once again opening its door to local school boys so that they can come along and see what life is like as a
chorister at Hampton Court Palace. While the boys undertake a choral workshop with the Director of Music, parents will have a chance
to hear about the wonderful opportunities for their sons to gain a first class education in music for free. Participants will perform
in the Chapel Royal followed by tea with the choristers and a chance to ask lots of questions. Boys aged between 8 and 10 years who
love singing are encouraged to apply and see if they have what it takes to become a Chapel Royal chorister.
