First Female Drapers’ Chorister

The Drapers’ Company has supported the choristers of St Paul’s Cathedral School since the 1960s through the Cathedral Chorister Trust. This week, we were delighted to welcome Sophie as the first female Drapers’ Chorister, nominated by the School.

The choir is an integral part of St Paul’s Cathedral’s heritage. The world-renowned landmark welcomes approximately two million people each year and is the home to one of the country’s most distinguished choral traditions.

A Drapers’ Chorister sings at daily services, major celebrations, national occasions, concerts and broadcasts. We wish the new Drapers’ Chorister every success in her academic and musical studies.
