Who we are
The Marchington Singers is a mixed choir and currently has 55 members - first and second sopranos, altos, tenors, baritones and basses, a resident accompanist (Rhoda Castle) and conductor (Wendy Scott).  We are based in the village of Marchington, near Uttoxeter in Staffordshire.

What we do
Our repertoire is 'mixed’ - from traditional four-part songs to favourite classics, choral works and songs from films and shows.  We mount our own concerts as well as being invited to entertain at other events, and our Christmas Candlelight event is not to be missed!

We sing at weddings, fundraising and corporate occasions, church festivals, dinners - and almost any event you would care to name!  Best of all - we enjoy it!

Membership
New members are always welcome - especially tenors! There is a voice test.  If you are interested in joining us you can use the
