A sublime evening of music making with Teena Lyle (Van Morrison) and Cathedral Organist David Pipe. An audience member commented afterwards: 'What a night! It was all about the music - no ego, no showmanship, no gimmicks - just two world class performers communicating powerfully in a language that begins where words end.'
