Three Choirs Festival
For nearly three hundred years the cathedral cities of Gloucester, Hereford and Worcester have taken it in turn to host an annual ‘music meeting’. The original performers were the three cathedral choirs, who remain at the heart of the festival, but the large-scale choral repertoire at today’s concerts is performed by a Festival Chorus drawn from the three cities, joined by an array of international artists and ensembles to provide a diversity unimagined in the eighteenth century. The 2010 festival takes place in Gloucester in August, with the next Hereford festival in 2012.
