The LMC

Choral music in England's most beautiful settings

Since 2007, the LMC has been promoting traditional liturgical music through its programme of cathedral-based singing courses. We provide development opportunities for amateur singers and professional musicians working in the field of choral music. We promote the work of young composers through commissions, performances and publication and offer bursaries for full-time students.

Publications

The LMC publishes a small number of works by some of the UK's most talented young choral composers, including pieces commissioned as part of the Composer in Residence scheme
