OUR LADY OF PITY CATHOLIC CHURCH
The Catholic Parish of
Swaffham and Watton
Music
We are fortunate to be blessed with musical talent in our parish: we have the privilege of regularly enjoying the music provided by Bronte on flute, and Sam and Alan on the organ, and the members of our small choir.
​
There are others too, whom we do not hear regularly, or who have hidden talents.
We hope that in the coming year, we can begin to tap into those talents, to encourage others to join us in in praising our Lord within the Liturgy.​
With the exception of one or two, none of us are experts, but enjoy making music.
If you feel the same way, you may like to come along and speak to Bronte (or any member of the choir who can put you in touch with Bronte)
