SUNG CHORAL EVENSONG

The choir of St. Alphege Church, Solihull will be singing

Sung Choral Evensong at St. Giles the Abbot Church, Cheadle.

The choir of St. Aplhege Solihull is a fine example of the centuries old tradition of English Choral singing. They are proud to be one of 80 or so parish churches to have a cathedral style choir.

Before becoming Organist at St. Giles Church, Simon Baker was Organ Scholar with At. Alphege choir for a year and accompanied them for many services in Lichfield and Dublin Cathedrals.

Please do come along and support this event.
