The Bledlow 100 Club

		Singing the praises of Bledlow Church Choir
		Bledlow Church Choir sings regularly in the Parish Church as well as in some of our country's great cathedrals, such as York Minster, Norwich, Coventry and Salsibury, to name but a few. In 2014 it returned to York Minster, followed by the American Cathedral in Paris, and in 2015 visits included Norwich, Oxford , Winchester and Worcester cathedrals. In 2016 it visited Coventry, Guildford and Peterborough cathedrals, and in 2017 it visited St Edmundsbury and Ripon cathedrals. In 2018 it visited Canterbury, Birmingham and Durham cathedrals, and its 2019 visits will be to St Paul's Cathedral, Salsibury cathedral, Southwell Minster and St Albans Cathedral.

The Choir attracts members of all ages, led by its charismatic choirmaster, Jeff Stewart, a Professor of Music at the Royal College of Music, a conductor, and an international tenor opera singer, whose enthusiasm and inspirational style of teaching lifts it to unexpected heights! Its organist is Cynthia Hall FRCO, who has played the piano since the age of 4 and went on to learn the organ while teaching philosophy in the USA. She has held a number of organists posts, and joins the Choir for its weekly practices, often taking over when Jeff is unavailable.

Choir members pay all their own expenses on their cathedral visits, but they now asking for your help to raise funds for the choir's running costs. Join the Bledlow 100 Club to help support it, and be entered into a quarterly draw to win up to £200.
