We have a thriving robed choir of around 15 adult members and five juniors.

The adults rehearse on Thursday evenings between 7.30 and 9pm. 
The juniors rehearse on Fridays during term time from 7.30 until 8.30pm.
We sing a huge range of musical styles, from Renaissance polyphony,
to the baroque glories of Purcell and Greene, to Victorian grandeur and
contemporary church music by composers such as John Rutter,
Richard Shephard, and Philip Moore.

The choir is required to sing at the 9.30am communion service each
Sunday and at all 6.30pm services except the second Sunday of the month. 
Four times a year we sing a full choral evensong and we usually visit a
cathedral at least once a year to sing evensong.  Recent visits have
included Bristol, Wells and Salisbury.  Four years ago we released our
first CD [Skyline Sounds] and our second [Skyline Sounds II] was released
during Advent 2008.

We are a friendly choir and have various social events during the year.

If you would like to join Christ Church Choir, please contact the Director of
Music, Tim Eyles, on 01793 486581 for an informal chat.  There are no
auditions, but a reasonable degree of commitment is expected.
