Choir

The choir at All Saints has a long and distinguished history. The number of people singing in the choir at present varies between 8 and 28 for various services and special occasions. We sing all kinds of church music depending on the services. Some services find us singing Anglican chant or plainsong whereas we have been asked for music from “Fiddler on the Roof” and “Carousel” for weddings. The choir have also participated in various musical productions in the church: “Captain Noah and his Floating Zoo”, “Joseph and his amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” and “Godspell” to name the most recent. We rehearse on Fridays at 7 p.m. in the Church and we are always ready to receive new members, even if they can only sing on an occasional basis.

Junior Choir Members

The younger musically minded members of our Church congregation form the Junior part of the Choir of All Saints Church Staplehurst. Members range from around age 8 (when they can comfortably read) up to the age of 18 when they can progress to the Adult Choir. The youngsters work towards different coloured ribboned medals which denote levels of achievement and understanding of not only singing but aspects of Christianity. A CD of the Junior Choir's favourite hymns and songs was produced in April 1999 which was very popular with the congregation.
