Music at St John’s

Music

Music is an important part of the life and worship of St John’s. We have a Junior Choir, an Adult Choir, a Family Service Group and a Youth Band. St John’s is fortunate in having a wonderful 3-manual organ. For more details about music at St John’s, .

Junior Choir

The Junior Choir consists of between 12 and 20 girls and boys whose ages range from 7 to 14 years. Full training is given, following the RSCM’s Voice for Life scheme and the RSCM Bronze, Silver and Gold Awards.

We run a waiting list for the Junior Choir. To add a name please .

The Juniors usually sing at the 10:30am Communion service on Sundays. There is provision for them to join the Junior Church or Salt & Pepper groups during the service. Practices are every Wednesday 6:30-7:30pm at the church.

Adult Choir

Juniors move up to the Adult Choir at the end of school year 9 or, for boys, when their voice changes.

We currently have 6 sopranos, 4 altos, 3 tenor and 2 basses. The Choir has a wide age and experience range. Adults sing at the 10:30am and 5:30pm services on Sundays, though there is no pressure to do both.

If you are interested in joining the Choir, please .

Family Service Group

The Family Service Group plays and sings once a month, on the second Sunday, at the 10:30am service. We practise once a month too, on the preceding Wednesday evening from 7:45 to 9:00pm, in the church.

We currently have 2 violins, a viola, a cello, 2 flutes, 2 oboes, a clarinet, a bassoon, a trumpet, 2 horns, a trombone, keyboard, guitar, bass guitar, drums, handbells and a group of singers.

If you are interested in joining the Group, please .
