Pop superstar Ed Sheeran surprised choristers rehearsing Christmas carols when he officially opened their new music school.
Just under 40 young people are part of the St Mary-le-Tower choir in Ipswich. There were gasps when the door of their practice room opened and Ed walked in, asking: “Can I listen?”
St Mary-le-Tower has opened its Song School in a building opposite the church on Tower Street. It is also used as a wellbeing and community hub with Citizens Advice.
The vicar of Ipswich Minster, the Reverend Tom Mumford, said: “He was amazing with our young choristers, listening to them, asking them questions.”
