Our History Chelmsford Songsters 2014
Chelmsford Songsters 2010
Chelmsford Citadel Corps (No. 823)
opened fire on 24th June 1886. Musical sections appear to have been formed
almost immediately. Certainly there is evidence of an active songster
brigade dating to at least 1890.
In the UK, the brigade has campaigned as far north as Edinburgh, and as far south as Paignton, Devon. A highlight for the brigade, came in 1997 when, during the first cease fire in Northern Ireland, the brigade traveled to the corps at Belfast Dee Street (now Sydenham). The Chelmsford Citadel Songster Brigade currently has about fifty members. They represent a variety of occupations and take an active part in the Christian ministry of the Corps. Their mission is still to represent the good news of the gospel of Christ through their music and singing.
Our MissionAlong with the rest of Chelmsford Corps, it is the mission of the brigade to share the good news of the gospel with those who listen to us. To Love God and Love Others.
