Countdown to Christmas

So the Christmas countdown has begun as the ladies start rehearsing their Christmas repertoire! Alongside old favourites we have a new piece “All the stars were singing” written by our very own Morfudd Sinclair. We have three Christmas outings scheduled so far:

Kemp Hospice Service at St Mary’s Church KIdderminster on Friday 22nd November (Evening)

Concert with Alcester Victoria Silver Band at Winterfold School Kidderminster on Saturday 7th December (Evening)

Afternoon Christmas Concert at Trinity Methodist Church on Saturday 14th December (2pm)

Tickets can be purchased in the usual way and also will be available on line nearer the date.

We look forward to seeing you!

 

Final shout out for our annual concert!

Less than a week now until our annual concert which this year will be at Mary’s church Kidderminster. As well as ourselves we are excited about being joined by two very special local guest artists!

Luke Swatman was nicknamed the ‘Worcester Pavarotti’ after his appearance on the TV show the Voice and will be singing a mixture of classical aria’s and songs from musical theatre. Our second guest is pianist, conductor and composer Tony Bridgewater who will entertain the audience with works from composers such as Liszt, Schubert and Beethoven.

It’s not too late to get your tickets from our usual sources or via Eventbright!

We look forward to seeing you on Saturday evening (20th) doors open at 7pm.

Many of you will know that the Valentines have been holding online rehearsals via Zoom during the last year due to the pandemic.

We are pleased to announce that after having our hopes dashed in May, physical rehearsals will resume on July 22nd with small groups socially distanced, supported for a while by a continuation of our online practice.

 

We are looking forward to getting back to regular singing together without the need for a ‘mute’ button, and preparing for our next concert.

We already have some provisional concert dates pencilled in so please pop them into your diary. More information about how to obtain tickets will be shared via our website and social media pages nearer the time.

Provisional dates so far:

Saturday 13th November 2021 Kidderminster Town Hall

Saturday 4th December 2021 At Anne’s church Bewdley

We are also opening the choir to new members. If you would like to join us, whether you are new to singing or would like to start singing again, then please get in touch. All our details can be found on our website.

Christmas is coming…..

After a busy autumn singing for the WI at The Three counties Showground, and at Pershore Abbey with the Alcester Victoria Silver Band we are now on the countdown to the Christmas season.

On Saturday 7th December we will be joining the annual Kemp Hospice Carol Service at Kidderminster Town Hall which starts at 11am, and then we are honoured to once again join our fellow choristers of Kidderminster Male Choir at their annual concert on Saturday 14th December, again at the Town Hall.
