Last heard in action singing part of Britten’s\u00a0Ceremony of Carols<\/em> in December, the choir is sounding in excellent form, and the service promises to be a wonderful occasion.<\/p>\n

The service begins at 5.30pm, and will also be livestreamed<\/strong> on the Cathedral’s YouTube website below.<\/p>\n

(Update: the choir begins processing in just after four minutes in to the broadcast!).<\/p>\n
