The popular organ concerts, which will begin again on April 7, will be served up along with snacks, sandwiches and drinks.

The 45-minute recitals are free of charge and begin at 1pm with sandwiches and snacks on sale from 12.30pm onwards. Minster organist Graham Gribbin said: “The aim is to bring the organ recitals to a new audience and by introducing the light lunches, create a very relaxed atmosphere.”
