Music at Mass
Our Parish Organist, Christine Hartnell, accompanies the adult choir, which sings a full Mass setting and hymns at the 9.30am Mass on the First Sunday of each month.
On the 4th weekend of the month, a newly formed 'instrumental group', with guitar, keyboard and clarinet, accompanies the singing of modern hymns at the 5.30pm Saturday Mass.
On the other weekends, the adult choir sings hymns only, accompanied by taped music published by Kevin Mayhew Publishers.
The Instrumental Group practises in the Church and on alternate Wednesdays, during term time, the Adult Choir meets to practice the next week’s hymns. We are looking forward to expanding our repertoire to part-singing, first for Christmas carols and later for other well-known hymns.
New choir members or instrumentalists are assured of a warm welcome.
