HISTORY

 

Trinity Singers Anniversary Concert 11.5.2024.png

Over the years concerts have been presented in many local churches and other venues, including many collaborations with Churchill Academy, and a tour to Florence.


In 2015 Andrew Tyrrell was appointed Musical Director. Andrew had previously written a specially commissioned piece in memory of our founder, John Abdy. Under Andrew’s direction the choir has further widened its repertoire and improved both in overall sound and rhythmically (Andrew being a percussionist!).  Andrew stepped down in March 2026.

 

Simon Lovell-Jones will take over as our new MD from autumn 2026, and to take us through the summer we are delighted to have as a guest conductor Alison Blundell - well known to us as a fantastic accompanist to many of our concerts.


Although our numbers reduced through the Covid years, the choir is now increasing again and looks forward to continued success over the coming years as we further develop our repertoire and attract new singers and audiences.

The choir started by bringing together the church choirs of four local Parishes for special events.

 

Following that initial success the then Vicar of Burrington and Churchill Rev. John Abdy, together with organist and choir master Jeremy Martin, decided to make the choir a permanent feature and it took the name Trinity Singers in January 1999.

 

Gradually the choir programme has broadened to a mixture of sacred and secular music at concerts and services.
