One of Europe’s most successful female-led early music and folk ensembles will captivate listeners with rich, ethereal harmonies and a variety of ancient and forgotten languages. The renowned classical chart-topping choir was founded in 1996 by Katharine Blake and has garnered success with 10 albums, an Ivor Novella Award for ‘The Virgin Queen’, two Emmy nominations, and a Royal Television Society award for the ‘Victoria’ theme. Their haunting vocals have graced venues worldwide, from castles to Glastonbury, and they’ve performed with Jools Holland at the Royal Albert Hall and many more. For their 30th anniversary tour, they will be playing myriad songs from their latest album ‘The Spinning Wheel’ alongside old favourites to celebrate three glorious decades. Please note: Doors to the venue will open at 7pm. A few minutes before this, you will be treated to a grand torchlit procession and entrance by the band. The concert will begin at 7:30pm, including a 20-minute interval, and finish at approximately 9:30pm. An external organisation hosts this concert, and booking fees may apply. Ticket and access queries should be directed via the Mediaeval Baebes website. Events like this play a vital role in sustaining the Cathedral for the whole community, supporting our work as a registered charity and ensuring our doors remain open to all.
