MUSIC
Music is an important part of what we do on a Sunday and we enjoy a variety of styles: traditional hymns with the organ and contemporary worship songs with a small band. We also have an occasional choir which assembles for special services throughout the year, especially around Christmas and Easter. The choir is open to anyone who wants to have a go at singing together - young and old, experienced or otherwise, musical or not!
Outside of Sundays, the church is full of music, with many groups hiring our spaces for choirs, ensembles and concert performances.
In the Summer of 2019 we held our first ever Summer Concert Series, in which talented young musicians from London's music colleges were invited to give recitals. Last year, for our 125th anniversary, Sarah put together a series of concert and invited various talented musicians including the Séas String Quartet and the London City Brass and she will herself performed an Organ Recital.
This year we look forward to welcoming back the London City Brass to mark the last day of summer.
All events are free and music lovers of any age are very welcome.
