The Bradford Boys' today performed at a concert at Leeds Cathedral as part of the Cathedral's weekly concert series. The concert consisted of music from the Llibre Vermell alongside Spanish organ and choral music by Correa de Arauxo - very much a 14th Century feel!
The choir sang 'Cuncti simus concanentes' (Let us sing together) as they processed into the Cathedral to a large and appreciative audience. For Catholics familiar with pilgrimages to shrines such as Lourdes, the notion of singing religious and devotional songs in procession will come naturally.
To complete their day in Leeds, the boys joined the Cathedral Choral Scholars to sing Mass for the Feast of St. David; music by Joseph Haydn and selections from the Llibre Vermell being the order of the day.
