EVENSONG

on National Programme Daventry

View in Radio Times

from St. Paul's Cathedral
Since the dismantling of the organ at Westminster Abbey, the BBC has received many requests from listeners to broadcast a weekday Evensong from St. Paul's Cathedral. The Dean and Chapter of St. Paul's were approached and have expressed their willingness that one of their weekday afternoon services should be broadcast; and, until further notice, a service will be broadcast every Wednesday from 4.0-
4.50 p.m. in the National Programme, beginning with today.
The change from Thursday to
Wednesday is sure to meet with the approval of many listeners who have complained that, while two religious services have been broadcast every Thursday, there has been no religious service on the afternoon or evening of Wednesday.
