13th December - All Saints Choir

On 13^th December we were treated to a glorious performance by the Choir of All Saints. In particular six of the senior trebles performing a number of choral works including “Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring”, “I know that my Redeemer Liveth” from Handel’s Messiah and a piece from Vivaldi’s Gloria.

The choir of All Saints, Wokingham, is one of the finest in the region.  In addition to its regular duties at the church on Sundays and at important civic and church events, it sings at major cathedrals across the country and churches all over Berkshire.  

Of course our hosts for the evening was the church itself, the best place to experience this kind of music.

14th December 2013 - All Saints Choir at All Saints Church

Last night saw us at All Saints Church for a magical evening listening to the Church choir perform a selection of plainsong from the 8th, 16th and 20th Centuries.

In their own words, "The choir of All Saints, Wokingham, is one of the finest in the region.  In addition to its regular duties at the church on Sundays and at important civic and church events, it sings at major cathedrals across the country and churches all over Berkshire." 

An audience of around 70 people enjoyed the performance. The church was bedecked with candlelight just adding to the atmospheric evening.

Tonight we hope you will join us at Cafe Rouge for another surprise performance.

Candlelight carols under the Christmas Tree with the Choir of All Saints Wokingham

The Choir of All Saints, Wokingham, is one of the finest in the region. In addition to its regular duties at the church on Sundays and at important civic and church events, it sings at major cathedrals across the country and churches all over Berkshire. They will be opening the final door of the Wokingham Living Advent Calendar with a traditional Nine Lessons and Carols – in miniature!

Around 100 people enjoyed a series of traditional carols sung with great skill and a number of readings retelling the birth of Christ. There was a magical air inside the church with candles and the Christmas tree aglow which only added to the spirit of the occasion.

The performance ended with the always fun “We Wish You a Merry Christmas” and a short speech by Wokingham Town Mayor Cllr Peter Lucey.
