St Edward's Music & Arts Centre

St Edward’s Church is a flourishing centre of worship in the Anglican tradition, with weekly Sunday services of Choral Eucharist and Choral Evensong, and daily acts of worship. For over 30 years the Church has recognised its special ministry to musicians and artists in the locality, and the St Edward’s Music & Arts Centre coordinates that outreach to the community, providing opportunities for amateurs and professionals to rehearse and perform in an auditorium of outstanding acoustic quality. Instruments available at the church include a three-manual pipe organ, and a grand piano.

While most of the activities coordinated by St Edward’s Music & Arts Centre are musical, there are also Art Exhibitions, Poetry Readings, Dramatic Performances and Readings.

Several local professional musicians are currently based at St Edward’s, and many of the music groups welcome new members from the local community. The resident professionals include:

Alison Dite
Sara Clethero
