Lay Clerks

There are nine Lay Clerks at Manchester Cathedral, 3 each of alto, tenor and bass.  They sing at least 4 services each week, alongside the Chorister; in addition they occasionally appear in their own right, singing a wide ranging repertoire from medieval to modern.  Many also pursue a solo singing career.



Opportunities are always available for singers to join our list of deputy Lay Clerks; please contact the Organist & Master of the Choristers to arrange an audition.
