HEREFORD Cathedral’s annual season of summer lunchtime concerts begins on Monday with a special Easter concert at 1.15pm, when Dr Roy Massey will play a selection of popular and colourful music.

Played on the historic Willis organ, these lunchtime recitals have become a popular part of the music programme at the cathedral with many people eagerly anticipating the announcement of all the organists who will be playing this year.

“It’s a pleasure to welcome back Dr Massey for our popular bank holiday concert,” said Geraint Bowen, the cathedral’s director of music. “Easter Monday is one of the busiest times of the year and we hope he will be playing to quite a crowd.”

The event is free but there will be a retiring collection to support the work and upkeep of Hereford Cathedral.
