| The choir of the Church of St Peter & St Paul, Aylesford, Kent
is a mixed choir with a history stretching back
well over 100 years. From young children to senior citizens, the choir is
called upon to lead the weekly worship at Aylesford Church in addition to
services of Choral Evensong, other special services, weddings, concerts, carol
singing in the local community and other events.
An annual weekend away enables the choir to strengthen its social life as well as its musical, within the framework of the Christian community. Aylesford Choir have appeared on television (ITV's 'Morning Worship' and Harry Secombe's 'Highway', as well as Telethon) and have recently made their first CD. Practices are held in the church every Thursday evening from 8.00pm to 9.30pm (7.30 to 8.45pm for youngsters) which, with pre-service practices and Junior Choir practices, provides the opportunity to learn a variety of music in an environment where hard work and enjoyment go hand in hand. The average length of service of choir members is in excess of 12 years: Many choristers also perform other duties within the church, for example, bell ringing. The present Organist and Choirmaster took up duties in October 1985, and maybe contacted here about any aspect of the choir, including recruitment. Michael Keays, the choirmaster, has recently composed a Requiem Mass click here to download a sample. (If your browser does not support MP3 playback vist Realaudio.com to obtain a free player) |
