Progress report for 25/10/2026

Thank you, all involved with Music and Merriment, for playing your role for our concert on 5/12/26.

After two committee meetings, our plans for the concert are becoming solid, and we now have a draft concert programme (see button above).

• Our performers and performing groups are available or planned;
• To date we have 9 registered members of the Junior Concert;
• Both of out two outstanding young musicians will be performing, and we have their programmes (see the pro;
• So we have a concert!

Welcome to our first post on the MandM Concert page.

We have had our first committeee meeting; the committee members being Lesley, Sue Bish, Kiaya, Margaret-Anne and Anthony, who has taken on the role of concert director again.

The concert will be a community concert as before, celebrating local talent, with similar performing resources to last year, including the Junior Concert Choir, our fine young soloists Sarah and Sergey, bellringers, Organist, Brass Quintet and organist, and readers and performers including John Kimbell and Caroline Loveys.

This year we will not have a Senior Choir, and will rely on the lusty singing of the audience.

We are grateful to Kiaya for her contribution to the new graphics that we are using this year.
