Compline is the last of the seven daily services which are sung in monasteries and convents. It brings us to the end of the day, and it is also a gentle preparation for the end of life.

Compline in the Cathedral has changed very little since the monks of Ely sang it before the Reformation. It is a meditative, candlelit space for music, prayer and reflection, to quiet and calm the soul, to look back over the day that is gone, and to commend ourselves and those we love to the care of God as night comes.
