THE BENEFICE OF THE WINTERBORNE VALLEY AND MILTON ABBAS
St. James - Milton Abbas
Come and sing at Milton Abbas with the choir which meets every Thursday night at 7.30pm at St. James Church. Dulcie house runs the choir here and they sing regularly three times a month. There have been several weddings during the year and they also sing at an annual Musical Candlelit event held in St. Catherine’s Chapel each June.
St. Mary’s - Winterborne Whitechurch
You might like to sing once a month at St. Mary’s in Whitechurch for Common Worship Eucharist. The choir meets on the Tuesday before the 4th Sunday in the month from 6.30 to 7.30pm.
The two choirs join together for Christmas and Easter. As you might expect, at Christmas there are usually several Carol Services to sing. In addition, for the past three years the Choir has sung some demanding pieces for Good Friday, including parts of Stainer’s Crucifixion and works by Tallis, Bach, Mozart and Gloss.
Current choir members are:
Dulcie House Catherine & Emily Roberts
Pauline Rick & Angela Ironside
Rose Evans Debbie & Lucy Albery
Derek & Val Lamb Marion Miles
Paul & Anthea Battrick Ellie Chichester
Angela & Richard D’Silva James Chesney
Jonathan & Caroline Chichester Ben & Peter Chichester
