Nice to see this back! Still quite like it.

My grandparents lived in Wells, and we'd stay in their house for a couple of weeks in this lovely city when they went away on their summer hols. Looks like there's been some developments and expansion in the ~60 years since 😕

Cut back on paying the monarchy to repair these properties.

Grade I I'd think they'd it would be mandatory to keep them in top condition. They are utterly gorgeous even in poor condition, can't imagine what they will look like when rehabbed.

so, some of the cottages are currently occupied?

There's a video on the Wells Cathedral RUclips channel that shows the interior from a year ago -- it shows the poor condition of and damp of the buildings. They were/are trying to repair the buildings: ruclips.net/video/ZT7C5qrVDdc/видео.htmlsi=Vc13KbCOsmgqNLCk

They should wreck these shabby, old buildings and replace them with modern 1960s adjacent buildings made out of concrete slabs!

Its a shame that they covered the cobbles in dirt (probably for any horses/carriages)

It looks like Hogwarts and then a bunch of kids walked by in capes.

I wonder - could that include come and sing events?

An amazing art installation. I got to witness it a couple of weeks ago. Really moving.

Beautiful! Blessed be God forever!

Bravo 👏

"I need to turn this up to eleven!"

Whether I am at the console performing this piece or hearing it, there is something about the ending of this piece that emotionally stirs me.

Having seen this video this morning (1st March, 2024) I went to see this installation at the cathedral this evening. Whilst the projections were impressive in themselves, how was it possible for the sound to be so unbelievably bad? The recordings of the various anthems and other speech were so muffled and unintelligible. I stood next to the various PA speakers as well as the everyday regular in-house column speakers, and the source recordings were equally bad as the other. I have to assume this was wholly intentional as it could not possibly have been attributed to the cathedral's acoustic. 😡🤬

Excellent playing. Perfect tempo

Hmmm! Sounds intriguing!

I've been both grieving and focusing on Christmas Carols. I don't know if you guys are going to deal with another of Rutter's pieces. His Candlelight carol is appropriate for the point of both. My brother passed away just over a week ago! And that's been preoccupying me - most definitely! I have been listening to this carol! And it's given me some comfort.

I remember this. This is going on three - almost four years ago! Hmm! Dark times indeed! But I still do recall it.

WoW what a fantastic project 😮

Beautiful piece. The composer, David Bruce's RUclips channel, led me here. ruclips.net/video/Ii3BwiU7leg/видео.htmlsi=S_yLSDShxa-nHSh7

I am so delighted to see that you are opening some of the houses to the public. My grandmother lived there as a child before her father was snapped up to go to South Carolina. I love Wells Cathedral and have always felt a strong connection, probably due to the family connection. I look forward to looking around the houses.

damp ingress lol

Quality singing 👌

it is so amazing!

Lacking a 32ft pedal stop, especially for such a huge space, in my humble opinion!

It wasn't easy for any of us - at the time. It was upsetting but now we're back in our shared responsibility to lead services. I understood the matter well! It was a long time to be stuck with it as we were. I understand that well.

I remember this from the darkest time for all Cathedral, Abbey and Church Choirs when we were all scuppered by the hated choral vandal Covid 19. And indeed it was lovely.

Sad to think when I write this it is just over an hour since the death announcement.

There are suggestions here in the words that cause we to wonder if the song writer had time to speak with Her Majesty before beginning the process. Strong values come up in these words.

I once visited Wells Cathedral on holiday and the choir sang so beautifully.

Bravo Wells Cathedral - a lovely rendition of a beautiful piece.

Absolutely lovely.

Stunning.

Bravo all

Absolutely sublimely beautiful - bravo all, and profuse thanks.

The local church choir I sing with got lumbered with singing this yesterday. Truly awful piece which none of the choir liked. Two members of the choir gave up during rehearsals as they could not stand it. Wish I had. This was commisioned by the Royal College of Church Music for the Jubilee but was not sung at St Pauls or Windsor castle chapel!

Wonderful! So fervent. Edit: RIP Queen Elizabeth II.

I remember this during the first months of the first lockdown. As a chorister of a church choir - I absolutely loved this version of this hymn. I strongly believed that we would get back into it.

Dare I ask the cost of the rebuild ?

This brings back memories....of a good time..thank you.

I want to be an anglican.

Great to see kids smiling through the pandemic. Joy to the world.

This is probably my favourite Christmas hymn (or in the top 3 at least…)
