Singing For The Pope!

British chorister Mark Spyropoulos on how he became part of the Pontiff’s private choir…

- Tess Lamacraft, Rebecca Mahoney

As a young music student at Dublin’s Trinity College, Mark Spyropoulos had always loved singing, but never did he imagine he’d one day be part of the Pope’s private choir.

After university, Mark traveled to Italy to look for work as an opera singer, but while in Rome he met the Sistine Chapel’s then choir director, Massimo Palombella, who offered him a job.
