Immanuel's
Ground is a
West Gallery
Quire,
formed in 2001 in Warwick.
Together with a small band of
instruments we sing and play music
from the period roughly 1700 to 1860 which was once
the mainstay
of church and chapel music throughout England, and
to some extent, America.
We draw
our members from the "Heart of
England", which, generally speaking,
is Oxfordshire, Northamptonshire, Worcestershire and Warwickshire.
We do also have several members from
further afield.
We
practice at
Northgate Church Hall, Warwick, CV34
4TH on the
2nd, 4th and 5th
Wednesdays in the month at 8 pm.
The Quire has
suffered from a loss
of membership over
the last two years,
and we would love to
welcome more singers
and
instrumentalists,
whether they have
heard of west
gallery music or
not. Come to any of
our practices on a
Wednesday evening in
Warwick -
there's a free
car-park right next
to the Hall in which
we practise. We are
lucky to have one or
two instrumentalists
come to join us,
but we seek more
singers on all
parts, and
especially Tenors!!

When Musick's notes with steps already move
Thro' virtue's paths, and breathe with heav'nly
love,
The rapt'rous mind from earthly mansions flies,
And soars aloft above the starry skies.
