Presented in association with St Edmund Hall and The Queen’s College

What to expect Stand in the extraordinary medieval crypt at St Edmund Hall, and hear music from 15th century illuminated manuscripts from the Bodleian Library, with facsimiles on display.

Hear, see and explore the stunning Goostly psalmes and spirituall songes by William Coverdale (1488-1568), a treasure of The Queen’s College, in the College Chapel. An unmissable step back in time as we highlight musical manuscripts as artworks.

Regretfully there is no disabled access to The Crypt at St Edmund Hall, which involves steep and uneven steps.

Please note this event begins at 10.45am at The Queen's College Chapel.
