St. John the Evangelist

Music

A review of this page is awaited.

Music stirs great emotions and can be used in times reflection, contemplation, praise, thanksgiving, sorrow and joy. It can help us prepare for worship and celebrate and share together. We seek to ensure that through the appropriate selection of words and music, everyone can find something to suit their own particular style of worship. Currently we use a pool of musicians of all styles, ages and abilities that can provide instrumental or vocal groups.

We are fortunate in having a church organist who plays at Parish Communion services, as well as weddings and funerals. At other services, a range of instruments are used, generally in a contemporary style. Occasionally an ensemble will play for a special occasion, e.g. the annual Carol Service.

Our regular groups of musicians are Celebration Singers and Bell Ringers.
