The recent Confirmation Mass

Huge thanks to those of you who were able to attend and lead the lusty singing at the recent Confirmation Mass.

It was very much appreciated by the Confirmandi, their families and the clergy and parishioners that so many of you sung so lustily to lead the singing at the recent Confirmation Mass.

The Metropolitan Police Choir.....

Choir Outing 2018

We shall meet at Norbury Station at 09:20 promptly and travel to Westminster Cathedral for the 10:30 sung Solemn High Mass.

We have most of a wonderful Mass by Rheinberger to uplift us during Mass! The music for both Mass and Vespers may be seen HERE.

After a browse around the Cathedral Repository and St. Paul's Bookshop next door (feel free to do otherwise) will will go to lunch at 13:00 just over the road at Browns in Cardinal Place.

Then there is Solemn Vespers + Benediction at 15:30 and a 30 minute organ recital by Jonathan Allsopp, one of the Cathedral organists at 16:45. He will be playing Sir Edward Elgar's awesome Organ Sonata.

You pay for travel and your drinks, and Doris will kindly pay the balance. (Pray for the happy repose of her soul, please.) Menu choices need to be with Jeannette soonest, please, as she needs to inform the restaurant.

Forthcoming Music/Dates List

The latest Dates List for your diaries is
HERE.

Choir Party & Music Checking

The Choir Party is on 3 July, and Music Checking on the following Tuesday.

It would be good if between now and Music Checking everyone put their folders in order - it will make life much easier for you on the night.

I have growing concerns about the damage being done to music by those of you who take music home in soft bags, and we really will need to find a remedy to this.

Photocopied music is getting very tatty, and it is not cheap or easy to replace.

Prayers, please

Please remember especially at this time Terry Jupp's sister Susan and a Choir Member's urgent Private Intention.

Also Jean Cowie, Veronica's sister Monica, John Windsor, Ken's niece Beth, Carole Winch, Mary & Frank Elliott, Maria & Family, and Jeannette's mother Hazel.

St. Bart's Memories No. 14

Before we went to Rome in 1990 the local Croydon Advertiser did a feature on us, and this was the press pic that appeared!

Anne, Sally, Bunty and me!!

Anne and I did a television interview with the then-extant Telewest Croydon TV channel. I remember dressing smartly (yes, really!!) and having to do it in shirt-sleeves as the cameras didn't like the dog-check pattern on my Harris Tweed jacket!!
