Facade of St Andrew Cathedral in Sydney, Australia.

Sporting beautiful stained glass and twin spires inspired by England’s York Minster, squat St Andrew’s Anglican is the oldest cathedral in Australia (1868), built by Edmund Blacket. Music is a big deal here; refer to the website for details of free lunchtime organ recitals, concert band performances and "Young Music" concerts during school terms. The accomplished choir can be heard at various services.
