It is with great sadness that today we learned of the sad news of our Organist and Director of Music, Ian Keatley’s, death. As a Cathedral community we are so deeply shocked and our hearts go out to Ian’s family at this most difficult of times. bit.ly/46IpSHF

Hello! I've recently started as the Director of the Burford Singers (burfordsingers.org.uk) a lovely and highly competent large choir in the utterly beautiful town of Burford in the Cotswolds.
