#StCeciliasDay Here is the wonderful St Cecilia window from Holy Trinity church, Sissinghurst in Kent. By Leonard Walker (1877-1964). I don’t have the date of the window itself, though.

#StCeciliasDay - patron Saint of Music, so very dear to my heart.🎶 If you don’t know #BenjaminBritten Hymn To Saint Cecilia, I heartily recommend. ❤️

This is for all the music teachers out there. I’m sure this is what all your lessons will be like today even with the Year 9s. #StCeciliasDay
