St Andrew’s, Handsworth has a long music tradition dating back to the opening of the church in the early part of the twentieth century. The church has excellent acoustics and is particularly well suited to vocal/ choral concerts.
The church has a traditional, robed, parish Choir whose primary function is to lead the sung mass worship at the main service on Sunday at 10.00 am.
Today, the choir consists of a cross section of age groups and is structured using the traditional ‘SATB’ voices. The choir sing and perform traditional, classical and modern works and rehearse and sing a liturgically suitable anthem each Sunday.
