What people who have booked us have said
That was the most thrilling performance of 'O Holy Night' I've ever heard
I love coming to your concerts, they are always a joy and the singing is so well blended
Usually male voice choirs sing the same old boring repetoire but you're so different
Various people - St John's Midsomer Norton - December 2011
Many thanks for the lovely Concert we enjoyed last night. It was great that so many people turned up.
It just goes to show how popular your performance is. It makes for a lovely Community get-together.
I confirm that we would really appreciate a return visit in December 2012
Barbara Kelford - Christ the servant Church, Stockwood, Bristol - June 2011
"The choir has always been 1st division, but now you are Premier league"
"When you are fortunate enough to attend a concert as good as that, you go home feeling uplifted"
"It's good to see that the choir is performing at bigger venues. You deserve larger audiences"
Micheal Eavis' comments following our Annual Concert - July 2010
Please convey my heartfelt thanks to Kate and all members of the Mendip Male Voice Choir for the absolutely wonderful concert you gave in St. John’s Chilcompton on Friday, for Children’s Hospice South West. It was a really lovely programme. It was especially nice to hear 'Shining' again. I have the recording but heard live it is even more moving and a poignant reminder of the focus of our fundraising efforts.
Friends of the Children's Hospice SW
Just to let you know that our Christmas concert raised a magnificent £2100 profit! This means that our group holiday costs for 2010 are met. News to gladden the heart of any treasurer! A big thank you to all. Apart from the outstanding financial result it was a glorious evening with all those involved as well as the audience having a really good evening out.
Wiltshire Children's Breakaway Holiday Leader
Your performance was fantastic and very professional and we enjoyed every minute of it! From the delightful choir to the enchanting soloist Hannah Lockwood, this together with the support of the brilliant pianist Carl Speck and the very talented musical director, Kate Courage, made the evening faultless. Well done to you all.
RUH The Forever Friends Appeal
This wonderful choir has come like a butterfly from the chrysalis that was the Timsbury Male Voice Choir. Their beautiful and very talented musical director and conductor, Kate Courage, produced a fantastic range of pieces to start the Christmas season. The choir has a delightful young soloist, Hannah Lockwood, whose voice has an amazing range. This is certainly one very talented young lady. The accompanist, Carl Speck, brings a youthful touch and his musical ability is not hidden as he supports the voices. Many thanks to all who helped to make the evening a success.
