This Sunday the university Choir had been invited to sing by our Chair of Governors, Bishop Richard Moth, at his cathedral in Aldershot. Parts of the liturgy were based on the Feast Day Mass - including using the same arrangement at the Preparation of Gifts as we sing for No wing at the window. The piece at Communion - We have seen the light - was the choir's piece of the annual choirs festival which we had repeated for the graduations.
