Exciting ventures on this year's horizon for the choir of Hereford Cathedral include their first tour of California and the west coast of the USA in October - something organist and director of music Geraint Bowen has always wanted to do.
The tour, during the autumn half term, will be a mixture of services and concerts, including a performance with a professional orchestra. Venues are spread throughout California from San Francisco to Pacific Palisades to San Diego.
"As well as some wonderful locations in which to sing, the choir will also have the chance to explore," Geraint said.
"We currently have a space for a probationary chorister in Year 4.
"Assuming that the boy is able to be admitted as a full chorister by the end of the summer term, he will be able to join us on this remarkable trip."
Anyone wishing to know more about the tour or joining the choir can call Geraint on 01432 374238 or Glyn on 01432 374261.
