8/10/2018 A day of beautiful singing!Today included a great deal of fun as we explored the town and village across the Dee, visited Chester Castle and bought lunch at Marks and Spencer. But what today really included was some of the finest singing the choir has done to date. Our program included Ian Wicks wonderful 'Cherubini Service' and Paul Bryan's beautiful 'Evening Hymn'. The choir also chanted Psalm 53 & 54 and sang their first ever real and true Gregorian Office Hymn. Manifold full organ chords with sung high a's made for thrilling stuff in the Chester Cathedral acoustic! Last of all, Organ Scholar Renee Nikkel gave a thrilling performance of Bach's Prelude in F Major. Following Evensong we took a terrifying Ghost Tour with our favourite Guide, 'The Real Tom' Jones who led us through grave yard, church yard and city burial grounds, all replete with spine-tingling tales of horror! All in all a pretty special day!
