On Thursdays during Lent (other than on Thursday 6 March), The Ebor Singers, an associate choir of York Minster, will sing Compline in the Quire.

The ancient monastic service of Compline is a contemplative, candle-lit moment of stillness and simplicity. This form of night prayer brings the day to a close and prepares us for sleep in the knowledge we are known and loved by God. Traditionally after this service we are encouraged to enter into a period of silence.
