There are several Choirs in the Parish and we include some details on them below.

Abbotskerswell Singers

 IMG 2294

Abbotskerswell Singers has been in existence since 2000. It started as a group of enthusiastic singers within the village but has grown and developed over the years into a four part harmony choir under various musical directors, each of whom has made a significant contribution.

Singing is great fun. If you would like to join the choir, we are always looking for new members. We are a friendly bunch, managed by an extremely pleasant and somewhat wacky Music Director, Nicola Smith.

Under her direction, we tackle music from many varied genres ranging from classicla to modern. Don't worry if you can't read music, many of us can't either and it's not a requirement. Don't worry if you think you can't sing, most people can but just lack confidence. We don't audition, we just welcome you. If you wish to give it a go, just come along on a Wednesday evening, 7:30pm in Church House, Abbotskerswell.

Chordettes

The Chordettes recently moved to Abbotskerswell where they rehearse in the Village Hall on a Wednesday night. Several of our ladies are in the choir.

Tapestry Singers

This mixed group of eight madrigal singers held their first performance in October 2015. You can hear them rehearsing in this very short YouTube clip. The choir is currently resting, but watch this space for more news.

Choral Evensong

Led by Michael Roberts, this group of singers has one or two performances in St Mary's Church each year.
