Following the success of their Easter concert at St Giles’ Parish Church in March the Sirenian Singers next performance will be held at St Chad’s Church, Hanmer on Saturday, 24th June.

The concert will include a variety of works by Handel, Mascagni, MacMilan, Jenkins, Mathias, Hogan and Whitacre, and also the Sirenian Singers first ever performance of the Schubert Mass in G with choir members performing as soloists. There was an amazing response to the Fauré Requiem in March’s concert and we are confident that Schubert’s work will reach the same heights.

Sirenian Singers will be conducted by Musical Director – Jean Stanley Jones MBE who needs no introduction. Jean founded the choir in 1990 and has won many awards and prizes for her conducting musicianship, including at the Bartok Festival in Hungary and the Welsh National Eisteddfod. She was formerly the head of Flintshire Music Service.

The organist and piano accompanist will be Christopher Enston who has been the choir’s accompanist since 2015, and has a long and distinguished career performing all over the world in concerts and festivals.

Sirenian Singers have performed at many venues at home and abroad, including the Thomaskirke in Liepzig, St David’s Hall, Cardiff, Bridgewater Hall, Manchester and more locally Theatr Clwyd, Mold and William Aston Hall, Wrexham. Among the choir’s festival successes was winning the Choir of the World Trophy at Llangollen International Eisteddfod.

They are inviting you to “come and enjoy a memorable evening and a variety of musical styles to suite every taste”

Saturday, 24th June, 2023 at 7.30pm. St Chad’s Church, Hanmer, Whitchurch, SY13 3DE.
Tickets £12.00 from Eventbrite, choir members and at the door.
