Choristers say BBC Songs of Praise fee is 'an insult to singers Choristers at Llandaff Cathedral in Cardiff said they had been offered £110 to perform over two days, but the rate agreed with the union Equity should be £214 a day. One chorister, Adam Poole, said: "It seems to me there is an attempt to deprive choir members of the fees they are entitled to." Another, Matthew Mudge, added: "I think it's pretty insulting to expect members of the choir to sing for less money than they are entitled to." Songs of Praise is screened on BBC One but the Llandaff Cathedral shows are being produced by Avanti, an independent production company. The Llandaff Cathedral choir is the only professional Anglican cathedral choir in Wales. Its lay members receive a salary from the diocese. However, Janet Henderson, the Dean of Llandaff, said hosting Songs Of Praise was "an honour" and was not done for profit. A BBC spokesman said: "The independent production company are still in discussion with the cathedral about the choir's involvement and the fees involved that will be in line with agreed industry rates."
