Music at Barnes

HERE at Barnes Methodist Church we are lucky enough to have a number of amateur and professional musicians in our congregation. Our organist, Chris Moorhouse, plays most Sundays and our resident band accompanies the more upbeat hymns and songs.

 We use the Methodist Hymns and Psalms as our main hymnal but in most services we'll have a few songs from Songs and Hymns of Fellowship or Common Ground. You'll soon learn our favourites!

We have  a Bechstein grand piano, which has allowed us to use the Church as a concert venue and enhanced our singing.

 When planning our redevelopment we made sure that the Bevington pipe organ would remain a key part of the building. It is an old and treasured instrument with a somewhat mysterious past, purchased by our congregation in 1926 but initially built for a residential property. If you are interested in learning more about the organ, or want to know a little more about how it works, please speak to one of our musicians after a service.
