Uplifting singing and swinging in store at Mansfield concert

The two groups have met on many previous occasions, performing at Southwell Minster, Ravenshead Village Hall and local churches.

Audience members are promised a foot-tapping evening, with uplifting swing music, male voice choir standards, songs from the shows and other music in a wide range of styles.

The concert follows the choir’s successful four-day, three-concert tour to the home of male voice choir singing, South Wales. It included concerts with Cor Meibion de Cymru (South Wales Male Voice Choir), Pembroke and District Male Voice Choir and Chepstow Male Choir. All concerts sold out, and the audiences enjoyed a wide range of songs from Welsh ballads and hymns to modern popular music.

The Summer Sing and Swing concert takes place on Saturday June 21, starting at 7.30pm. Tickets cost £10. Visit www.mansfieldmvc.co.uk to book. Tickets are also available from band and choir members, Watson Knipe Accountants on 01623 490120 and choir secretary Eileen Lawrence on 01623 455373.
