A pop-up choir for a special choir concert

All men can sing according to Macclesfield Male Voice Choir which is inviting them to show their vocal skills.

The choir is forming a pop-up choir for a special concert at Macclesfield United Reformed Church on Saturday, April 18, at 7.30 pm.

Eight rehearsals start on Wednesday, February 25 (7 pm) at East Cheshire Hospice on Millbank Drive.

Beginners are encouraged to go along. Advice will be given by choir members who will then perform as the guests of the All Men Can Sing choir at the concert.

Proceeds are donated to the Hospice for its dementia singing programme.

Co-organiser Laurie Kennard said: “All men can sing to a certain extent and we urge anyone interested to join rehearsals.

“Someone could be intimidated going into a room where 30 guys are singing their hearts out while they’re starting from scratch.

“However, the idea is they all start at the same standard. There won’t be auditions. All we ask is they can hold a reasonable note.

“A friend went to a similar pop-up event and was reluctant to enter a room where everyone can sing properly. But once he tried it, he enjoyed himself so much that he’s now joined that choir.

“This could be a way of making new friends, improving mental health and helping raising funds for the Hospice.” If interested, phone or text 07471 230513 or email allmencansing@oldbro.org
