Cathedral Featured on BBC Radio Ulster

The Dean of Belfast Cathedral, Stephen Forde, and our Director of Music, Matthew Owens, recently featured on BBC Radio Ulster to promote our 'Cathedral by Night' that we held last week.

Speaking to Kathy Clugston on The Ticket, the Dean talked about this new venture for St. Anne's Cathedral, welcoming visitors into the building after dark, allowing them to experience the building in a way they wouldn't have seen it before. Matthew gave a background to the piece that he performed during the event, Messiaen's La Nativité du Seigneur, and described how it depicts various scenes of the Nativity of Jesus Christ.
