Ireland - Greater love hath no man | The Choir of Trinity College Cambridge

[@andreakinuthia4197]

Happy memories of singing this at Mary Mags in Oxford with Westminster College chapel choir. Wish I could still sing 1st soprano 😊

Thank you - just what I needed to hear. Pure beauty.

I’m working on this now with my choir. I love the alto part in this soo much.

Trinity College at its finest as ever. Bravo!

17 years ago I had the privilege to be on the organ, when our choir was performing this piece during a music festival here in switzerland - my deep gratitude goes to our great conductor back then ❤

Can't beat Ireland for a great song. Would love to hear Sinéad O'Connor singing with them too.

You do know that John Ireland is a person, not a nation,don't you?

Some of the choristers are wearing a black sash on their back. One has a blue sash. What does that mean?

[@TrinityCollegeChoir]

Hello James, good question. All Choral Scholars are also students at the University. Most are undergraduates, working towards their first academic degree. Others are postgraduates who already hold a degree and are enrolled on a further course of study at the University. The sashes that you see are graduation 'hoods' - there is a range of colours and styles corresponding to different awarding faculties and types of degree. For more information see: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academic_dress_of_the_University_of_Cambridge

‘Sash’? They’re academic hoods.
