Music at All Saints’
Music is an integral part of our church community here at All Saints’
Our Adult and Junior Choirs enhance many of our services with their singing, led by our professional Organist & Director of Music. They sing at our regular Sunday Sung Eucharist and Choral Evensong (second Sunday of the month) services, as well as at other special services, events and concerts. All the singers in both choirs are unauditioned volunteers, who sing to a high standard – everyone who loves singing is welcome to join! (Children aged 7+ in the Junior Choir)
On the afternoons of the fourth Sunday of the month, music plays an important part in our Evening Worship services, be that led by our music group at Taizé services, by cantors at Sung Compline, or congregational singing and organ music at Healing services, among others.
Occasional recitals and concerts also mean that there is always something musical going on at All Saints’ to enjoy – come and be part of it!

Junior Choir
For children who love to sing, the Junior Choir at All Saints’ provides a fantastic opportunity to learn under the direction of a professional choir leader. Our choristers receive coaching in singing, reading music and music theory. Being part of a choir is also proven to build social, teamwork and organisational skills. We offer all this in a fun, engaging and supportive atmosphere.
Membership is open to children aged 7 and older (school year 3 and above). Older children and teenagers are very welcome too. Rehearsals take place on Fridays 4-5pm in All Saints', with Chorister Tea (squash & biscuits) available beforehand from 3:30pm and afterwards until 5:30pm for those that might like them (and for parents who work later!). Our Junior Choristers sing for services on the second and fourth Sundays of each month. The current term's choir diary is available on this page.
We are always keen to hear from the parents of children who love to sing and who might like to join our Junior Choir. If your son or daughter is seven (or older) and in Year 3 (or higher) at school, and you think that they would enjoy being part of our choir, please contact Benedict Todd, All Saints’ Director of Music to find out more.
We accept new members throughout the year, there is no charge for participation and our choristers receive free music tuition as part of their rehearsals - the perfect way to equip your musical child with skills which will give them access to enjoy a lifetime of music-making!
Adult Choir
We have an established adult choir that sings at our main eucharistic service, monthly choral evensongs, extra services such as our incredibly popular Nine Lessons and Carols for Christmas, and occasional weddings and funerals. The choir's repertoire encompasses ancient plainsong to contemporary pieces, and it enjoys the varied and enjoyable challenges that this wide repertoire brings. It offers a great release from the stresses and strains of life, and we aim to ensure that singers leave rehearsals and services uplifted, feeling cared for and affirmed. New members are always welcome - if this sounds appealing to you then Benedict, our Director of Music, would be really delighted to hear from you.
