🏛 5 days to go.
There’s something truly special about singing at St Anne’s Church, Lydgate — beautiful surroundings and wonderful acoustics.
We’re looking forward to filling the space with music once again this Friday!

Meet Matt — one of our B1 Baritones and a brilliant example of how special singing in a choir can feel.

Matt joined Saddleworth Male Voice Choir in 2023 and sings in the B1 Baritone section. His favourite piece to perform is Bring Him Home, and some of his favourite venues we’ve sung in include Fountains Abbey and St Anne’s Church, Lydgate.

Matt is always singing to music at home or in the car, but he says singing in a choir is something else entirely. “It can make the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end and sometimes feels quite spiritual.”

What does he love most about SMVC?
“The whole choir — including our Musical Director and accompanists — are a great bunch of people. Everyone is friendly, welcoming, and looks out for each other. I’ve been amazed at how much fun we seem to have at practice evenings.”

We’re delighted to have Matt as part of our choir family.

Thinking about joining us? Rehearsals take place every Wednesday at 7:30pm at Saddleworth School — new singers are always welcome.

Meet Stewart — one of our Top Tenors, singing proudly from the back row and helping to shape the upper edge of the SMVC sound.

Stewart joined Saddleworth Male Voice Choir in 2018 and sings in the Top Tenor section. One of his favourite pieces to sing is Tell My Father, though he also enjoys many of the more recent additions to our repertoire — including Bohemian Rhapsody and Fix You.
�Some of his favourite venues to perform in have been Fountains Abbey and Huddersfield Town Hall.

For Stewart, singing is about far more than just the music. He says it gives him a real sense of wellbeing and satisfaction — especially when everything comes together after a concert. He also feels it helps keep him healthy and supports his breathing, too.

What does he love most about SMVC?�Making new, lifelong friends of all ages, the camaraderie and support throughout the choir — plus the help from Dorian, which has improved his singing and understanding of music, alongside working with two great pianists.

It’s singers like Stewart who embody what SMVC is all about.

Fancy joining us? Rehearsals take place every Wednesday at 7:30pm in Uppermill - new faces are always welcome.

Meet Ollie — one of our B1 Baritones and a familiar face in the middle of the SMVC sound.

Ollie joined Saddleworth Male Voice Choir in 2018, singing in the B1 Baritone section. His favourite piece to sing is Crossing the Bar, and some of his favourite venues we’ve performed in are Uppermill Civic Hall and Waddington Church.

When it comes to why he loves singing, Ollie puts it simply:
“If you’ve ever harmonised in a choir, you’ll know. If you haven’t — you should absolutely give it a go.”

And his favourite thing about SMVC?
Stewart Grace. (We’ll let Stewart decide whether that earns Ollie extra rehearsal points…)

It’s singers like Ollie who make Wednesday nights so enjoyable.

Fancy joining us? Rehearsals take place every Wednesday at 7:30pm at Saddleworth School — new faces always welcome.
