"The Music Group" comprises singers and instrumentalists, and meets about an hour before the 10.30 service to rehearse the music. New members are always welcome to join. At special occasions (eg Christmas, Easter, Village Festival) the choir is augmented by willing volunteers.
The songs and hymns selected for services for the current month or two are listed in a file which can be downloaded here:

The Carol Service is an annual opportunity for the regular singers to be joined by others to create a choir of 40 or more to lead the music a week or so before Christmas. Practices for the enhanced choir on the four previous Fridays at 7.15pm. Do join us!
Directed by Liz Croft (who conducted our choir at the recent Carol Service). They sang a short programme with a wide variety of music, and all a cappella, ranging from excerpts from Mendelssohn's Elijah to pop by the Pentatonix

Back for a second time, The Academy of St Martin in the Fields was here in St Mary’s church again! One of the world’s greatest chamber orchestras, The Academy of St Martin in the Fields is renowned for fresh, brilliant interpretations of the world’s most-loved classical music. The wide-ranging programme contained many favourites, including Mozart’s ‘Jupiter’ Symphony No. 41 – regarded by many critics as the greatest symphony in the classical repertoire.
All sponsors received a free glass of wine in the interval!
St. Mary's can be used as a venue for concerts from local schools or other music groups in the area. Please be in touch if you wish to consider this option.
