Rutterfest 2025

Welcome to Rutterfest! Join us at St Gabriel's Church for a come-and-sing celebration of the magical music for Christmas written by John Rutter - a rare chance to sing his colourful and indulgent orchestrations with full orchestra.

Sheet music hire and tea/coffee included.

The choir vestry will be turning into a café so you will be able to buy a hot lunch in-between rehearsals.

1030-1330 Singers Rehearse with Piano

To make it even more Christmassy, whilst you're in the church you'll be surrounded by the magic of the St Gabriel's Christmas Tree Festival, where the church will be filled with trees decorated by local businesses, schools and groups!
