From Thursday to Saturday the Cathedral was host to the annual Conference of Cathedral Deans in England and Wales, joined on Friday and Saturday by a meeting of the Conference of Catholic Directors of Music, the body bringing together the cathedral music directors in England and Wales. Mass on Friday evening was concelebrated by all the deans, with the cathedral choir in attendance, and a small but exceptionally talented singing assembly!
We kept to our normal musical fare, providing fellow cathedral musicians whose regular output in some cases might be more traditional and reserved in greater measure to the choir, a flavour of the actuosa participatio which we think of as our hallmark. Perhaps the Nowak Gloria and Bob Hurd’s Missa Ubi Caritas in particular were good advertisements for the song of the assembly, to say nothing of Paul Inwood’s well-known psalm setting.
