Music at St Barts
Chris Tutin has been Organist and Choirmaster at St Bartholomew’s since August 2007. He is a graduate in music of
Here he writes about the various types of music at St Bartholomews.
St Bart's Band consists of various combinations of piano, guitar, oboe, cello, drums and vocals and usually leads the music in one service per month, normally the first Sunday. Here the music is generally more modern and up-beat in style, although we often combine this with more traditional hymns and songs within the same service.
New members are very welcome, on any instrument. Please contact the Organist and Choirmaster for details.
St Bart's choir is small but is made up of experienced singers, many of whom sing with local choirs and choral societies. As well as leading worship in hymns and the Mass, the choir frequently sings anthems, motets and similar items during the course of our services.
Choir practice is at 9.30 on Sunday mornings and new members are always welcome. Even if you are not able to attend regularly, we welcome additional singers at Festivals and Feast Days. Please contact the Organist and Choirmaster for further details.
