SurRound
Join us for an extraordinary experience of a cappella choral music – be surrounded by a kaleidoscope of sound as singers move through the candlelit spaces surrounding the Cathedral’s Great Choir singing music ranging from Whitacre and Tavener to Pärt, Byrd, Florence Price and much more. This sonic immersion experience is not to be missed!
