In Dane and Trent Methodist Circuit and beyond
Nowadays the choir sing for all the
circuit's churches and for external audiences. In addition to
singing church music, they perform in styles ranging from Bach
to the Blues. Each Christmas they sing extracts from Handel's
Messiah.
New members always welcome. Ms Wanda Johnson is the choirmaster. Please contact her through the circuit's superintendent
minister.
To create worship sets and lead the congregation in a new style of worship: a more intimate, personal worship, using voice and instruments. We listen to loads of new music to expand our repertoire, e.g. Hillsong, Songs of Fellowship, Spring Harvest. We are always on the lookout for new band members, particularly guitarists and bassists.
Holmes Chapel
Band Fellowship
The band meet every week. All ages are welcome to join in. We perform with the church choir etc.

Music is very important to Biddulph Church, being provided by a combination of organ and praise band. The church does not lean towards music that can be labelled either 'traditional' or 'contemporary', but rather uses whatever is the right piece of music for the occasion.
