MUSIC AT THE PARISH
Both Goldthorpe and Hickleton enjoy sung Masses using the modern Roman Rite. Each church has a small non robed choir. The choirs join together for weddings, funerals and for Feast days and Holy days of obligations.
The members of the choir are also involved in other none church based choirs around South Yorkshire.
Our Parish Organists are Mark Goodwin at Goldthorpe and Andrew Taylor at Hickleton.
Goldthorpe Organ
This is the second Organ in the Parish church and came from The Church of the Ascension, Maltby. It was completely rebuilt and renovated when installed at Goldthorpe. The case was slightly modified and the Fifteenth rank was added. The full cost of these works were paid out of the bequest in memory of Bertha Richardson who was not only a local celebrity known for her wonderful award winning garden but was also a great lover of music.
