Andrew Lumsden returns to Oxford

Andrew Lumsden returns to Oxford

Dr Andrew Lumsden, whose departure as director of music at Winchester Cathedral brought down a clerical house of cards, has moved on to his nex engagement.

He writes:
Delighted to say that I will be directing chapel music at New College, Oxford for the Michaelmas Term, while Robert Quinney takes a well deserved sabbatical. The fact that I started my musical career as a chorister there, with my father as Choirmaster, makes it even more special. I feel hugely honoured to have been asked, and am really looking forward to it.
