MMS is a registered Charity. Registered Number 802330
Who are we?
Midhurst Music Society (MMS) has been providing the Midhurst area of West Sussex with live Choral concerts for the past
52 years. Many of our concerts require orchestral accompaniment and include orchestral items. This support is provided
by local semi-professional musicians and occasionally by other instrumental groups. MMS is directed by Mary Knight.
What do we do?
We perform classical choral works and part songs,in public concerts and smaller recitals, supported by other training and
social activities. We also send representatives to sing with the Petersfield Musical Festival, which give us the opportunity to
enjoy performing large choral works. We support young musicians as they begin their musical careers and we want to
encourage the appreciation of and participation in choral music in the Midhurst area.
How do I join?
We welcome new members to sing with us. You don’t have to be able to read music - we will show you how it’s done. Just
come and enjoy making music together. Contact our Chairman or Secretary or just come along to a
rehearsal.
We meet on Monday evenings, from 7.30pm, usually in the Methodist Church Hall, North Street, Midhurst.
New singers are warmly invited to join the MMS choir this year as soon as the present lockdown
rules are relaxed and singing together in groups is allowed. Weekly rehearsals will be held in the
Methodist Church Hall, Midhurst on Monday evenings from 7.30 onwards.
New Singers do not have to read Music as full guidance will be given and you are assured of a
warm welcome. Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass or even “don’t know” singers will enjoy making music
with friends.
Meanwhile - we are happy to support the Music Appreciation group of Midhurst U3A, which is
meeting monthly via Zoom. Contact MMS for details
The June meeting on Thursday 4th will enjoy favourite pieces chosen by our members. An mp3
file of the music to be played is available here:
