What are the choir's main duties?

• Lead the hymns at the 10am services on the second, third and fourth Sundays of each month
• Sing an anthem during Communion at the 10 am service at those same services
• Sing Choral Evensong at 6.30pm on the second, third and fourth Sundays each month

How do I join?

Use one of the following methods:

• Email James Casselton, the choir director. (jcasselton@googlemail.com)
• 'Try out' the choir at any Thursday evening choir practice (7.30pm-9pm) in the church. You will be assured a warm welcome but no 'hard sell'!
• Speak to any member of the choir or clergy at coffee in the church hall after the 10am service
• All are welcome - there is no audition!

How much commitment do I have to make?

• Feel free to give as much/as little time to the choir as you have available
  - as long as you feel that you can keep up!
• Informing James of known absences in advance helps him to plan music according to the number of singers available

What will joining the choir do for you?

• As you would expect, the choir has its own social calendar
• Singers of any ability can develop their musical knowledge and vocal skills by following the Royal School of Church Music's Voice for Life scheme
• Personal and spiritual fulfillment in using your voice to enhance your own and others' worship
