Pinner Parish Church Choir sings a full Sung Eucharist and Evensong every Sunday and every two years undertakes a choir tour at a Cathedral for a week. Visited Cathedrals have included Truro, Exeter, Portsmouth, Bath, Rochester, St Edmundsbury, Norwich, Peterborough and Chester. The sopranos/trebles of the choir are young with an upper age of 18, whilst the alto, tenor and bass parts have several members who joined the choir as juniors. Many of these youngsters have gone on to University as Choral Scholars.
In 2006 the choir released a CD entitled Cantemus. The recording contains anthems, carols, psalms, hymns, motets of various composers, ranging from Palestrina to Rutter, Byrd to Leighton, Haydn to Stanford. It also includes a live recording of Choral Evensong at Chelmsford Cathedral, complete with organ voluntary.
Copies of Cantemus will be available for purchase during the interval.
