Stewkley Singers
Our next concert will be our Christmas concert.
Our Spring concert will be a performance of “Carmina Burana” by Carl Orff on Saturday 10th May 2025.
Our last concert was a performance of Verdi’s Requiem in May 2024 at All Saints Church, Leighton Buzzard. We sang this big choral masterpiece with orchestra and four fabulous soloists. The first performance of Verdi’s Requiem took place on 22nd May 1874 so ours was only four days before its official 150th anniversary.
“The choir, under the expert guidance of Stewkley Singers’ Musical Director Jenny Morgan… gave one of those once in a lifetime performances that was so full of sheer musicianship that it was difficult to believe they were amateur singers.”
Paul Dickens reviewing our May 2024 performance of Verdi’s “Requiem”.
The Stewkley Singers was founded in September 2006 and now comprises a friendly choir of approximately 50 singers aged between 15 and 88 (young people from Year 7 upwards are welcome).
