We practise every Thursday in the Parish Church, 7.00pm - 9.00p.m. and
have a wide repertoire of Christian music, ranging from mediaeval to modern.
We
sing at every Sunday evening service at 6.00p.m., 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 5th Sundays
being Common Worship Choral Evensong and 4th Sundays Choral Communion.
We also sing at
occasional civic services (e.g. Remembrance Sunday) and at weddings (about 20 a
year).
The choir is affiliated to the Royal
School of Church Music and many members attend R.S.C.M. workshops and other events, such as the
Diocesan Choirs Festival held each June at Durham Cathedral.
The choir's music and robes are funded by popular events such as coffee
mornings (held regularly throughout the year) and the Parochial Church Council
subsidizes the choir whenever necessary.
Our choir works well musically and
socially.
Each year our choir enjoys at least two informal social evenings
together.
New members are welcome.
