The year-seven Cambridge choir performed One Call Away and the Oxford choir had their first full choir performance in front of an audience with I’m on Top of the World.
The performance ended with both choirs giving a rendition together of Everybody’s Singing.
Students were delighted to see all their guests smiling and joining in with the song.
