The Mickleover Singers are a friendly, non-audition, mixed choir of around 30 voices who sing a wide range of music, including classical, folk, musicals, and popular pieces. We meet and rehearse together on a Monday evening, 7:30-9:15pm, at St John the Evangelist Church, Devonshire Drive, Mickleover during term-time. We perform three concerts throughout the year at Christmas, Easter and Summer. We also like to bring a little festive cheer to care home residents and shoppers alike by performing at local venues in the run up to Christmas. Last year we performed at Sudbury Hall for the volunteers event in November and then at both the Rykneld View Nursing home on Burton Road and the Nag’s Head in Mickleover on the 23rd December. Earlier in the year we performed at the Derby Arts Festival in the Community Choir category which proved a very enjoyable experience for all involved – something we are hoping to repeat in future years.

Our next full concert is planned for the 29th March 2025 at St. John the Evangelist Church.

If you’d like to join the choir or have any other enquiries, we would love to hear from you. We are recruiting new members, especially tenor and bass from 6th January 2025 – there is no audition and you don’t need any experience or ability to read music, just a willingness to have a go!
