Hi all

On a dark wet winter evening there is nothing more uplifting that singing together.

We are a non-audition choir with approximately 45 members. Whilst some members are themselves musicians, others have no previous experience of reading music or singing in a choir.

The choir rehearses every Tuesday evening, at 7.30 during term time, at St Endellion Village Hall.

Join Us!
We are always looking for new talent.

Hi Folks, it is with much regret we have taken the decision to cancel the Candlelit Carol Service that was scheduled for St Peter’s Church on the 7 th December. It is only a few days later that the Cathedral concert takes place and this event is taking much of our time in organising.
Please see the poster below for the other concerts planned in our Parish.
