We are a choir that meets up a few times each year to sing Choral Evensong and other church services in the most special and inspiring places, usually cathedrals and collegiate chapels, or chapels in former stately homes. If you love singing traditional sacred choral music in a choir, and like the idea of doing so in amazing locations with new and old friends and partaking of agreeable hospitality, this may be something you would enjoy.

Country Evensong in Kent


I now live in Sandwich on the Kent Coast, and am starting a series of Evensongs in the beautiful, ancient churches that abound in the villages and hamlets of East Kent. These are simple events, with no charge to take part. I don't expect anyone to travel far but anyone who would like an outing to sing Evensong in a Kentish village is warmly welcome.
The first is on Sunday 26th October at Elmstone, between Wingham and Ash, 2pm rehearsal for 5pm service. Click on the box above for details and the music.
