Exeter Cathedral's Friends of Cathedral Music Day gave us the chance to visit our own local cathedral for a change. The choir (boys, girls and men) sounded confident and polished, despite not everyone being present for the complete rehearsal, singing Ayleward responses, Wood in Eb (ii), and Bairstow's 'Blessed City'. It was noticeable that they were singing from very tatty copies, perhaps hoping for more funding from the Friends? Exeter and Truro are always in competition with each other as to who can produce the best teas at such functions - this year Exeter put on a marvellous spread which Truro will surely find very hard to beat.
