Welcome to St Mary's choir blog

The church has both an adult and junior choir. We are affiliated to the Royal School of Church Music(RSCM). The junior choir are provided with tuition to enable them to gain their RSCM medals. The RSCM Singing Awards celebrate singers’ achievements and progress, through formal examinations at three levels; Bronze, Silver and Gold ( Bronze award is roughly equivalent to ABRSM grade 4. Similarly Silver roughly equates to grade 6 and Gold to grade 8).

The senior choir is a four part harmony choir with its main responsibility to sing at the 10am Sunday service, including an anthem.

Our choirs do not require any fees to belong to them or for any training. New members to both the senior and junior choir are always welcome whatever their standard. If you are interested in joining us please contact our Director of Music (Joanna) via the  Contact Us page.

Selsey Chamber Choir, Concert

Selsey Chamber Choir, in association with Arts Dream Selsey, presents “In Paradisum”, a spring concert based around the well-known and well-loved Requiem of Gabriel Fauré. He wrote this work “for the pleasure of it” and we wish our audience the greatest of pleasure in hearing it. Included in our presentation are other works by well-known composers, including the serenely beautiful Pie Jesu of Andrew Lloyd-Webber. We are proud to have soloists from the choir, and to be accompanied by organ recitalist, Linden Innes-Hopkins, who from childhood knows Selsey well. We invite you to join us on Saturday 12th April at 3pm in St. Peter’s Church, Selsey, as we aim to lift your spirits and gladden your hearts.
