The choir of St. John the Baptist Church, Aldenham, have maintained the choral tradition of an Anglican parish church for well over 100 years. There are even copies of anthems in the music library dated Whitsunday 1899!  It must be emphasised however, that none of the current choristers go back quite that far!

The choral tradition is very much a part of the fabric of the church, even today in the 21st century. The choir sings at the two Sunday services every week, morning and evening. While the morning service varies between Book of Common Prayer Communion and Matins, and Common Worship Holy Communion, together with variants for Baptisms and family themed services, the Evensong service is very much as would be heard in parish churches and cathedrals throughout much of England and the Commonwealth. This represents a very strong commitment on the part of the choristers who give their time freely to choir practice and two Sunday services week by week.

Anyone interested in joining the choir should contact the vicar or the organist. Please see the Contact Us page.
