The final concert in the Cathedral Summer Concert series takes place on Friday 13 July and will mark the end of the academic year for the Cathedral Choir.

Friday 13 July, 7.00pm
Llandaff Cathedral Choir in Concert

Music to be performed will include:

Handel – Zadok the Priest, Lewis – The souls of the righteous, Gjeilo – Ubi caritas, Lauridsen – O nata lux, Todd – The Call of Wisdom

Tickets for this concert will be priced £10, £8 (concessions) and £5 for students and will be available on the door. The Cathedral Choir Association will serve refreshments at the close of the concert.

Director of Music, Stephen Moore, says “I am greatly looking forward to this year’s Cathedral Choir Concert which will be the last event of the academic year for the choir and will follow hot on the heels of them making a CD recording earlier the same week. It’s always a wonderful occasion and a great opportunity for the choir to perform outside of their usual liturgical role. Much of the music to be performed has been learned over the past academic year, and this concert gives us a chance to reflect on that year and look forward to the next.”

All are assured of a warm welcome.
