The angelic St Pauls Church Choir
performed outside the Roebuck in the Market Place on Sunday evening.
The 24 strong choir performed carols including “Up Good Christian Folk”, “It came upon the midnight
clear” and “Past 3 o'clock” to an audience of around 40 people.
St. Paul's Choir are the resident
parish choir for St Paul's
Church on Reading Road.
They are normally a robed Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass choir who sing for Parish
Mass, Choral Evensong on the first and third Sundays of each month and also for
all special services. In recent years
they have also sung evensong at Southwark and Canterbury Cathedrals and last
summer they hosted a very popular "Come and Sing" Faure's Requiem. The choir enjoy the reputation of being a
very friendly and welcoming choir and are always pleased to chat to possible
newcomers, adults and children alike.
They sing repertoire which covers a huge range of sacred music from
plainsong chant through to some of the best 21st century composers and rehearse
once a week on a Wednesday evening.
Thanks to The Roebuck for hosting last nights event.
Tonight you will find us outside Martin and Pole in Broad Street, although if the weather is
particularly unpleasant we might be inside. Come join us, tonight you decide the music!
