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.

St Mary’s Church Kidderminster is the venue for our annual concert on Saturday 20th April. We are pleased to announce two special guests will be joining us for this special event,  pianist Tony Bridgewater and  vocalist Luke Swatman.

Tickets will be available shortly from our usual sources or any member of the choir.

Singing about animals.. with a cat like tread..

Saturday night saw St Mary’s Church in Kidderminster filled with the combined voices of the Valentines and their guests the Mendip Male Voice Choir. The men chose a varied programme enhanced by the beautiful voice of their resident soprano Hannah Drury, but with a common thread – MD Jamie told us there was the name of an animal hidden in every song somewhere, although we did have to listen hard for some of them and perhaps some of them were a little tenuous??!! What a fabulous night we had, and we look forward to visiting the men on their home turf soon!

The hills are alive with the sound of music….

The sound of the Mendip hills arrives in Kidderminster next Saturday (10th October) when the Valentines welcome the Mendip Male Voice Choir to St Mary’s Church Kidderminster for a joint Autumn concert. Singing since 1919 the men have a varied repertoire and we anticipate a wonderful evening of music to fill this historic church.

The concert starts at 7.30, tickets from the choir and on the door. We look forward to seeing you there!
