The Duke Chapel Evensong Singers added some whimsy to their tour of Oxford, England, by taking the opportunity to sing at the foot of the staircase in Christ Church that was made famous by the Harry Potter movies as the entrance into Hogwarts Great Hall. They performed "Set me as a Seal" by William Walton.

LYRICS

Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for love is strong as death;
Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it.

~ from the Song of Solomon 8:6-7
