All Hallow's Choir

Contact:

Collin Nicholson Tel: 01777 871193

All Hallows has a small but enthusiastic choir of adults and children, men and women.  It leads the worship musically at the 10.15am service at All Hallows, and at weddings.

If you are interested in joining the choir please get in touch. 

Note for parents:  We are committed to the safety and security of children in all our activities.  All those who work with children on behalf of the Church Council - in Sunday school and in any other capacity - are vetted by the Church's child protection committee.  All volunteers working with children on behalf of the Church are checked through the Criminal Records Bureau in accordance with the diocesan Child Protection Policy.

Our child protection policy is here Child Protection.

 

CHOIR and MUSIC ANNUAL REPORT 2008

Report Index 2008  

The main comments I would like to make are

  • The choir numbers are still small on Sundays.

  • We have a faithful few who keep things going and we are grateful to them.

  • I shall continue to be on the look out for new recruits.

  • I am hoping that we might have an alto presence now and again soon.

  • On the other hand we have again managed to provide a choir at those weddings requiring one with the help of other members of our congregation and beyond. This is a very pleasing aspect which I hope we can repeat in 2008.

  • Also we did manage to try a couple of choir pieces again with the aid of co-opted members. This is something I hope to develop this year but it does depend on the presence of those agreeing to participate at practice and on the day itself.

  • I am still happy to receive requests for hymns at the services (but please give me a couple of week’s notice).

As ever I am very grateful to those who stand in for me by playing at holiday times and for funerals during the working week.

Collin Nicholson, Director of Music


 

ALL HALLOWS CHOIR AND MUSIC Annual Report 2007

Report Index 2007 

Another year has passed so quickly. The end of period report contains the following headlines:

  • The choir numbers have dwindled unfortunately. We will continue to look for new recruits though.

  • On the other hand we have managed to provide a choir at weddings with the help of some co-opted members. You will be sought out again!

  • We lost the services of Sue late in the  year and also Kate; thanks to them for their contribution over the years.

  • The hymn book is becoming more familiar but there are many we have not tried yet. I am, of course, happy to receive requests but please give me a little notice.

  • We now have the benefit of the renovated organ; I never want to see that key-board again.

  • I am, as ever, very grateful to those who stood in for me during the year.

  • I am still feeling my way in this post and would welcome any useful suggestions you may have.

Collin Nicholson

Director of Music (from late 2006)
