Richard III: a choir fit for a king

The current choir at Leicester Cathedral

Auditions are taking place today at Leicester Cathedral for choristers to sing at King Richard III's reinterment.

The cathedral already has a prestigious choir but they are on the search for new recruits to boost their numbers.

The body of the King is due to be reinterred in Leicester next spring, although campaigners in York are keen for him to be buried in their city.
