for local singers to come together to perform major

performances of choral music. These performances,
joined on occasions by well known soloists and talented
young musicians from centres of excellence all over
Britain, are valuable contributions to Jersey's musical
life. Additionally, a carol service is held every year
from which the collection is donated to a different
charity. Over the years the choir has raised funds for

Regional Choir of the John Lewis Partnership.
John Moore Quire, Shropshire The John Moore Quire is a
group of friends who first joined together in 1985 to
perform the lost music of earlier singers and
instrumentalists who once provided a focus for both sacred
and secular village life. Most Shropshire towns and
villages had such quires and we take our name from a young
nursery and seedsman called John Moore who was born in
Wellington, Shropshire, and who made a wonderful collection
of both sacred and secular tunes when he was between the age
of 17 and 19 years old. Although the John Moore Quire is
Shropshire based, its members are from a wide area including
Chester and Droitwich. We perform concerts throughout the
year depending on demand, and also participate in Evensong
services at Shrewsbury Abbey.
