Music is a key part of church life at St Stephen’s, both in worship and beyond. The Director of Music, Matthew Blaiden, leads a thriving and developing musical culture at St Stephen's. At its centre is singing by the voluntary Parish Choir made up of regular and more occasional members, and by the congregation; it extends to include a variety of recitals, concerts, and liturgical musical meditations; and it involves and is supported by a number of Associate Musicians, both soloists and ensembles.

Additionally, with its excellent warm acoustics for music, St Stephen's is in demand for hire by a range of other musicians and ensembles for both rehearsal and performance. If you would like to explore this possibility, please contact the Parish Administrator by e-mail at parishoffice@sswsj.org
