The Wesley Singers are a choir of about 38 members who come from various churches within the Leeds Methodist District. The group was formed in 1985 under the direction of David Carr specifically to introduce the new hymn book, ‘Hymns and Psalms’. Now, over 25 years later, the choir gives ten or more concerts each year as well as taking part in worship services. The Wesley Singers are pleased to accept invitations to sing in chapels throughout the district. Their concert programmes are based on sacred music together with lighter secular items, solos, readings and humorous monologues. Click on the picture to enlarge it |

Wesley Singers Charity Concert Raises £2231 The Wesley Singers gave their 25th Anniversary Concert on Saturday 22 May 2010 at St Andrew’s Methodist Church in Pudsey. Despite it being the warmest evening of the year, there was a capacity audience in the church and chairs had to be brought into the foyer to accommodate the overflow. The choir was on top form and their guests, the Yorkshire Evening Post Brass, gave excellent support. The joint items with choir and band proved to be audience favourites, and Jerusalem at the end of the concert almost did 'lift the roof'. A total of £2231 was raised for Martin House Children’s Hospice. The 25th Anniversary celebrations continued later in the year with a service on Sunday, 17th October at Lidgett Park Methodist Church, Roundhay. The service was led by Revd Dr Liz Smith, Chair of the District and the preacher was the Revd Brian Hoare, past President of Conference. The retiring collection was also in aid of Martin House and the service was followed by afternoon tea. |
