This Friday, the feast of Saints Peter and Paul, the choir of Hereford Cathedral will make history when it becomes the first Anglican cathedral choir since the Reformation to sing at a Papal Mass.
They choristers will sing in St Peter's Basilica alongside the choir of the Sistine Chapel at one of the Vatican's biggest services.
The choir has been invited as part of the Pope's programme to encourage church diversity.

It already happened, on June 29th 2012 at the invitation of Pope Benedict XVI. You can find a video of it on YouTube.
In reply to the anonymous comment made.
It is an Anglican cathedral choir that is singing tomorrow in the Vatican.
Well ok if you want to nit-pick, one is a royal pelucilar (not a Cathedral) the other is a proper diocesian cathedral. Incidently have you seen reports of the incident at St John's Tralee last Night?
But is it not you who is doing the 'nit-picking'? And why the anonymity? Learning from you, I'm wondering why you upper case common nouns and misspell words?
