A letter from Captain Law who attended the Armistice Day Concert with his wife:

“ I am writing to thank you and the Cathedral Concerts Society for your invite to the concert 
for Armistice Day. My wife and I enjoyed it very much.
It was an insight to the hard work and dedication that goes into the preparation for one of 
these performances.

Brenda and I were moved by the music and poems performed and in particular the world 
premiere pieces. I found the whole concert very moving and perhaps because of my 
association, very emotional at times. Please pass on our thanks and praises to all those who took part.”
