Following the popularity and success of
previous concerts we are pleased to
announce the sixth “annual series” of
Music in Saint Mary’s, Alveley.
With your support we shall continue to
make these splendid musical evenings a
regular feature in Saint Mary’s Church.
The church is a wonderful concert
venue, both aurally and visually, and
we in the church give live music our
wholehearted and enthusiastic support.
We hope this will always make St
Mary’s a very welcoming place for
performers and audiences alike.

Bridgnorth Male Voice Choir, founded in 1962, has
performed both locally and internationally. A member of
the National Association of Choirs, their repertoire
ranges from Verdi's "La Donna E Mobile” to classic rock
such as Queen's "Somebody to Love".
As a youngster, Sarah travelled Europe in a caravan with
her Mother's touring Country/Rock band. Her violin
playing has evolved as a result of this bohemian
upbringing and she has developed a style of
improvisation that is uniquely fluid and expressive.
