Become a Music Patron
Become a Music Patron
For music-loving supporters, music patronage is the best way to support our fantastic choir and musicians, and gain exclusive access to a wide-range of diverse performances.
Our choral tradition is a fundamental part of St Paul’s musical heritage and plays a key role in enriching our worship today. The Cathedral Choir also has an international reputation for excellence, having recently been named as one of the top ten choirs in the world.
Sustaining this world-class standard of music requires an annual investment of £1.3M – and we are ever reliant on fundraising and the generosity of our individual supporters.
If you’re passionate about our music and want to become part of a special community of supporters at St Paul’s, read on about the benefits of becoming a Music Patron.
One of the joys of being a music patron is having a seat under the Dome, being up close to the great singing, being able to see the interaction in the orchestra or between the singers, and really see how the technique and skill produces these marvellous sounds.
What are the benefits?
The minimum annual subscription for Music Patrons is £500. Supporters donating this amount benefit from:
- Evensong seats in the famous Grinling Gibbons carved Quire
- opportunities to reserve two seats under the iconic Dome for some of our special services
- priority booking for ticked Cathedral events
- automatic membership of the Friends of St Paul’s
- invitation to online and in-person Music Patron events
- regular music updates from the Cathedral
Music Patrons who give £1,000 per annum also benefit from:
- privileged access to the ‘behind-the-scenes’ musical life of St Paul’s, such as Choir rehearsals
- invitations to exclusive events and receptions, where you can meet our musicians
- additional seat reservations at special services (subject to availability.)
How do I apply?
