At the end of June we were delighted to host some 80 members of the Youth Choir of Brunswick Cathedral. The choir was on a tour of southern England, culminating in a concert in Coventry Cathedral, but while they were in Bath we were able to offer them our traditional hospitality, including a civic reception with the Mayor of Bath, Cllr Michelle O’ Doherty, who led a lively question and answer session with the choir members. On the Saturday evening the choir took part in a bilingual Evensong at Bath Abbey, together with the Abbey Girls and the Lay Clerks. This was followed by a recital of works on the theme of “Light”, at the end of which the choir left the Abbey by the great west door and gave an impromptu performance to members of the public in Abbey Churchyard. Those present agreed this was a wonderful occasion. The photo shows the choir in Brunswick Cathedral, standing in front of the famous 12th century...
