Cambridgeshire Boys' Choir - Mary Stuart's Prayer


The Cambridgeshire Boys' Choir is Britain's only independent choral establishment devoted to the professional training of boys' voices in the Bel Canto tradition. Members of the choir are professionally trained as opera singers.

This beautiful hymn is based on a prayer written by Mary, Queen of Scots, and is from the Maria Stuarda opera by Domenico Gaetano Maria Donizetti (1797-1848).

Manchester Boys' Choir - "Mary Stuart's Prayer"




The beautiful hymn, "Mary Stuart's Prayer," is based on a prayer written by Mary, Queen of Scots. The hymn is performed here by the Manchester Boys' Choir.
