Nostalgic for Liverpool: Watching The Priests at Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral

Posted byJason W. Ellis

I’m watching The Priests, a classical vocal group of three Irish priests: Fr Eugene O’Hagan, Fr Martin O’Hagan, and Fr David Delargy, perform at the Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral on PBS. When I studied for my MA in Liverpool, my friend Jean and I would run around Metropolitan Cathedral (what we fondly called ‘spaceship cathedral’) on our daily morning jog. The Priests have beautiful voices, and it would have been a treat to hear them sing in person.
