The Church Choir
Our RSCM-affiliated choir sings for the regular Sunday services, and a monthly Choral Evensong at which we are joined by a wider group of singers, as well as singing at important annual festivals like Christmas and Easter.
Give it a try? We rehearse in the side chapel every Thursday at 7.30pm
As well as local volunteer singers (and we always welcome new recruits for a tryout), we have a Choral Scholars scheme
whereby local college students receive an honorarium towards their music tuition for singing with us.
Choral Scholar vacancies exist - make contact with Simon for more details.
Our accomplished organist is Peter Spencer, who plays for rehearsals and services.
