Worth Abbey is a Community of English Benedictine monks living a life of Prayer & Hospitality – with a vibrant Parish and Retreat House.
The Role
We are looking for a Choral Scholar to join our Abbey Choir every Sunday morning. This is a one-year scholarship, renewable for a further period by mutual agreement.
What We’re Looking For
We are seeking singers of any voice part with good sight-reading skills who respond well to coaching and feedback. Applicants should show an interest in developing their skills and should be punctual to rehearsals and occasions when the choir is singing.
What We’re Offering
In return, we offer up to £1,500 a year per Choral Scholar as well as individual coaching and singing training. We offer flexibility in terms of ‘time off’ where holidays and absences can be arranged in advance. We envisage these scholarships to be particularly useful for experience and CV building – whether that be for University applications or for future careers & vocations in general.
For more details, please contact Edward Dean (Abbey Director of Music and Monastic Organist) at edean@worth.org.uk or go to https://worthschool.org.uk/vacancies/ to download the application pack. Auditions will be held during the first week of March 2025 at a mutually convenient time, for a programme start at the beginning of December 2024.
We Welcome Your Application
Closing date: 26th February 2025
