Sarah Cattley read Music at Newnham College, Cambridge, where she studied composition with Cheryl Frances-Hoad and Joseph Phibbs, graduating in 2016. Since then she has had a growing number of performances, beginning with Dulciana Vocal Ensemble singing her upper voice carol Adam lay ybounden in Dublin. Venues where she has been recently performed include Ely Cathedral and Saffron Hall (Granta Chorale), Truro Cathedral (the Chapel Choir of Fitzwilliam College Cambridge), St Pancras Church (where her Preces and Responses were sung as part of the London Festival of Contemporary Church Music) and St Wilfrid's, Haywards Heath (the second performance of Circle Dances). In July her piece The Pardoner's Song was selected by David Conte as the winner of Caritas Chamber Choir's inaugural International Young Composer Competition.
