The Madding Crowd
One of the Madding Crowd concerts is a historical musically enactment of the lives of John and Charles Wesley, founders of the Methodist movement. The band has a very good Serpent player.
The Madding Crowd researches and performs the church and secular music of the English village bands and choirs in the period 1660 to 1861.

We are indebted to those who run the SJR Youtube channel when we closed the doors to Hedge End Methodist Chapel in 2020. For a while they were inventing new ground, and kept us going until we re-found our feet.
Romsey Methodist Church is a group of people eager to spread the Good News about Jesus Christ. Jesus showed us how we should try to live our lives, and by dying and being raised to life for all of us he has made it possible for us to experience eternal life with the one true God.
