Southwark upgrades girls
UncategorizedSouthwark Cathedral has named Helen Smee as its next Director of Music.
She is presently director of Frideswide Voices, the girls’ choir of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford. Before that, she was at Worcester College. She has also been Director of Music at St Mary the Virgin, Merton Park for eleven years; in 2014 she co-founded the Voices of London Festival.
Helen Smee is described as ‘a passionate advocate and campaigner for the role of women and girls in church music’.
She succeeds Ian Keatley, who died in tragic circumstances last summer.
