SUPPORTING THE WORK OF THE TEMPLE CHURCH CHOIR The Temple Church Choristers at the Supreme Court, Washington DC, after their triumphant concert there. In November 2014 the choir visited Washington DC for the celebration of the Magna Carta Exhibition at the Library of Congress. The choir sang twice at the Library itself, in the presence of HRH The Princess Royal (there in her capacity as Inner Temple’s Royal Bencher), and then in the Supreme Court. Alongside the choir in the Inns’ delegation were both the Treasurers of 2014 and of 2015. Masters Judge, Tomlinson and Moore-Bick all took part in discussions of the living legacy of Magna Carta. This ambassadorial trip to celebrate the Charter was a triumph. We are now looking forward to the Classic FM broadcast of the choir’s concert on Thursday 4 June; to the choir’s music at Runnymede on Magna Carta Day itself, 15 June; and to the choir’s tour of Holland, July 2015. If you might like to support any of the choir’s projects or the endowment of our choristers’ educational bursaries, you are most welcome to contact me. Robin Griffith-Jones, Master of the Temple master@templechurch.com. 12
