Music

The uplifting sound of the choir and organ as they resound around the glorious edifice of St Paul's testify to the one aim of its musicians - to enrich the worship of those attending services and to provide inspiration to all who visit the Cathedral. All services at St Paul's are free to enter. A large number of concerts and recitals are also free. You are welcome here, whoever you are and whatever you do or don't believe.

Following the declaration of a Major Incident in London due to high rates of COVID-19, and the request for places of worship to close, the Chapter of St Paul’s has made the difficult decision to close the Cathedral for public worship and private prayer with immediate effect. This decision will be reviewed regularly, as we closely monitor the situation, and we hope to reopen for private prayer, services and sightseeing when it is safe to do so. The Ministers will continue to offer prayer and worship on behalf of us all.
