Thomanchor Part 2 of 3
This blog is a celebration of boy choir music.
"The Choir" was a made-for-TV miniseries in 1995. It has been released on DVD in region 2, and is available at Amazon.co.uk. American fans should be aware that most American DVD players will not play the movie. You need either a region free DVD player or a computer DVD drive and player with a program to make your computer drive region free.
This selection features the induction ceremony for new choristers, at the fictional Aldminster Cathedral, filmed in Gloucester Choir. Henry Ashworth is played by Anthony Way of the St Paul's Cathedral choir. Chilworth is played by treble James Hopkins. The rest of the boys are from the Gloucester Choir.
