CHURCH CHOIR

We are a small choir but we make up in enthusiasm what we lack in numbers We do however try to maintain a full four part harmony in our support of the singing of Mass and provide weekly, what we hope is uplifting music during the communion, whether it be traditional  or contemporary. From time to time for special services the choir is augmented.  Last year at our Centenary Mass in November, 15 in number, we sang All the Ends of the World by William Boyce at the Communion, followed by Stanford’s Te Deum in B minor to conclude the service. Many thanks to those extras who helped contribute to a memorable occasion. We are always looking for new members, all parts, any ability if keen to learn.  If you are interested please contact Paul Bloomfield, the Organist and Choirmaster at Choir@StAugustine-Aldershot.org.uk Forthcoming music at the Communion:   May 4th Ascension: God is gone up on high.
