Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral Concerts Society - Background

The Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral Concerts Society was established in the 1960s soon after the opening of the Cathedral to promote musical and cultural events at the Cathedral. 

Cardinal John Heenan, whilst Archbishop of Liverpool and the man behind the realisation of the cathedral plans, had expressed the wish that the Cathedral should become a centre in the City of Liverpool for arts and culture. To this end he was responsible for the foundation of the Cathedral Choir, a Choir School and the installation of a notable pipe organ.

Following the establishment of the Cantata Choir in the 60s, the Orchestra was formed in 1982 and from the outset the aim was for it to take part in both the Cathedral’s concert season and in its major services and to perform music which was not otherwise heard on Merseyside. Although the orchestra has developed considerably since its inception, these are still its basic aims today
Today's Concerts Society is managed by a small committee of dedicated volunteers who are elected by the choir and orchestra paid-up members at each year's annual general meeting. 
As a registered charity, The Society is financially independent of the Cathedral itself, and its funding comes from income raised by its concerts, as well as from Members and Friends subscriptions,sponsorship, and other fund raising activities.

Volunteers
We are always on the lookout for more volunteers to help with front of house, selling programmes and serving refreshments to name just a few things that ensure the smooth running of our events. If you are interested contact us through our website, Facebook,Twitter, or by calling 0151 709 9222
