Christ Church Choir
Listen to us sing "Look See and Know"
words: Dorothy French, Music: TIm Eyles
![]()
We have a thriving robed choir of around
20 adult members and 7
juniors. The adults
rehearse on Thursday evenings between 7.30 and 9pm.
The juniors rehearse on
Fridays during term time from 7.30 until 8.30pm.
We sing a huge range of musical styles, from
Renaissance polyphony, to
the baroque glories of Purcell and Greene, to
Victorian grandeur and
contemporary church music by composers such as John Rutter, Richard
Shephard, and Philip Moore.
Listen to what we are singing this month.
The choir is required to sing at the 9.30am
communion service each Sunday
and at all 6.30pm services except the second
Sunday of the month. Four
times a year we sing a full choral evensong and
we usually visit a cathedral
at least once a year to sing evensong. Recent
visits have included Bristol,
Wells and Salisbury. Four years ago we
released our first CD [Skyline Sounds]
and our second [Skyline Sounds II]
was released during Advent 2008.
We are a friendly choir and have various social events during the year.
If you
would like to join Christ Church Choir, please contact the Director of
Music, Tim
Eyles, on 01793 486581 for an informal chat. There are no
auditions, but a reasonable degree of commitment is expected.
