Easter Sunday

BBC One - Songs of Praise, Easter Sunday

Katherine Jenkins celebrates Easter Sunday with hymns and features from Chester Cathedral.

Katherine Jenkins celebrates the holiest day of the Christian year, Easter Sunday, with inspiring stories and uplifting new music from Chester Cathedral.

To celebrate the holiest day of the Christian year, Katherine Jenkins is at Chester Cathedral for Easter Sunday to meet the dean of Chester, who explains how they mark this special time of Jesus’s resurrection.

At the Cathedral’s Song School, Laura Wright hears about Handel’s famous visit to the city, where today the choristers are rehearsing the composer’s Easter anthem Hallelujah!

We meet some of the team working on the Chester Mystery Plays and share one woman’s story of rediscovering her faith through her involvement. And back at the cathedral, Katherine meets deaf Christians to learn about their experiences of accessing worship and creating positive change in their community.

With new music that celebrates the season of hope from an enthusiastic congregation in Chester Cathedral.
