Concerts 

Our wonderful evenings of Music in Frant continue with world class music on our doorstep! Huge thanks to our loyal supporters and we encourage new members to come and experience one of our musical evenings in the months ahead.

Further to our greatly anticipated performance by the internationally renowned cellist Raphael Wallfisch on 25th October, our next concert will be on 17 January 2025 with the 2014 Young Musician of the Year pianist Martin James Bartlett performing. This promises to be a very special evening. Bartlett’s early public success as the winner of the BBC Young Musician led to engagements with the BBC Symphony Orchestra, BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra and Ulster Orchestra and, in 2015, his BBC Proms debut performing Gershwin Rhapsody in Blue with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. For Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth’s 90th Birthday, he performed at the National Service of Thanksgiving, which was broadcast live on BBC One from St. Paul's Cathedral. 


An exclusive recording artist with Warner Classics, Bartlett has released three widely acclaimed albums on the label. La Danse (2024) focuses on solo works by Couperin, Debussy, Hahn, Rameau and Ravel, and received 5-star reviews in The Times, as well as Editor’s Choice on Gramophone. Rhapsody (2022), recorded with the London Philharmonic Orchestra and Joshua Weilerstein and featuring concerti by Rachmaninoff and Gershwin, was released to critical acclaim, also receiving Gramophone’s Editor’s Choice accolade and a 5-star review in BBC Music Magazine. His debut recital album Love and Death (2019) also received outstanding reviews in The Times, The Guardian and The Sunday Times.

Tickets will soon be on sale at Brittens Music Shop in Tunbridge Wells and online at Frant Church website.  We anticipate this will be a fast sell out, so don’t delay securing your seat!

Planning your Visit

A Warm hello 

The following information is specifically for those planning a visit, so that you know, beforehand, what to expect on a Sunday morning.
 

Our Service

The main service in Frant is 9.30am -10.30am.

Reverend Brendan opens the service and there is a mix of bible readings, sermons, prayer, and singing. 

Sometimes there is an opportunity to receive prayer at the end of the service.

Church Building

What can children do?


We have a fantastic programme for children aged 0–14.... and our very own Festival Church.

Morning service:

Children stay with the grown-up for the first part of the service as we worship (sing songs!) together.  The speaker will make it clear when and where children need to go for their programmes.  You do not need to go with your children unless they are pre-school age.  The children will have great fun playing games, and learning about God in a way that is tailored to their age group

The kids group activities vary depending on the age but usually there is a friendly welcome, bible stories, testimonies, praying, music, craft, drama, fun games and free play. Please pick your children up as soon as the service finishes.
