Welcome to Music @ St Paul's - the blog of the Music Department of St Paul's Cathedral, London (that would be the St Paul's Cathedral in London, Ontario, Canada not the slightly larger and better know one in England - though we've had a link with them, as have others, for many years and last sang there in 2009).
For those who may not know London, it is a city of some 350,000 situated in the south west of the province of Ontario, 2 hours (200km) west of Toronto and 2 hours (200km) east of Windsor and Detroit, MI. We're also about 200km from Buffalo.
St Paul's Cathedral, London, is the oldest church in the city, dating from 1846, and is the mother church of the Diocese of Huron (Anglican Church of Canada).
Both of the Episcopal cathedrals in Detroit and Buffalo are dedicated to St Paul, so it might be no surprise that we are building up a good working relationship between the three of us as we plan a Three Choirs Festival weekend in the spring of 2013.
The plan is to use this blog to keep you up to date with what the choir and musicians are doing, what music we're singing, when and where you can join us for services - particularly when we sing in the parishes of our diocese - and to share other thoughts and activities as they arise.
The cathedral website is stpaulscathedral.on.ca and the Director of Music, Andrew Keegan Mackriell, may be contacted at AKeeganMackriell@stpaulscathedral.on.ca.
Please do get in touch with us - we'd love to hear from you!
