Music
Music plays an integral part in the worship and life of Saint Michael & All Angels, just as it has done since the earliest epoch of the Christian church. Our services are enriched by the contributions from the choir and organ every Sunday at Sung Mass throughout the year, and on Holy days during Lent and at Christmas.
A wide-ranging programme of concerts is arranged in term time during the year.
