Reviews of Christ Church Darley Ave West Didsbury M20 2ZD in Manchester
Christ Church Darley Ave West Didsbury M20 2ZD venue information
It was built 1881-2 by Henry Littler. Sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings. Gothic style. Nave with north and south aisles, west tower, chancel. Three-stage tower with angle buttresses.
Christ Church is a venue for concerts due to its excellent acoustics (especially for chamber music) and flexible interior. It is the regular 'home' of the Manchester Chamber Choir and The William Byrd Singers of Manchester.
The church has a pipe organ of 42 speaking stops based on by JJ Binns of Leeds. It was brought to Christ Church in 1981 and rebuilt and enlarged in a new case at the West end. More recently (2013), the organ has been rebuilt by A. J. Carter of Wakefield. Changes included new digital combination and transmission systems along with repairs to the wind system. There is also a 2-manual Viscount Physis organ in the chancel which is used for choral accompaniment and can also operate the west-end organ via a midi link.
