PREVIOUS EVENTS: 

MMMK's spring and summer events in 2025 have been well received, as always - with a blend of indoor and outdoor sets, some in challenging heat too! We enjoyed taking part in the MK Community Choir Festival, and hope to be back next year, time allowing! Great as always to be part of other local events and festivals too.

MMMK completed our set of  festive music, revisiting some longstanding venues, and some new invitations throughout December 2024. Previously, we wrapped up our contemporary repertoire for 2024 with a reprise at Magdalen House, Stony Stratford on 12th Oct, with a preview of new pieces.

MMMK continued our theme of supporting other charity events, and performed at The Cock Hotel in Stony Stratford on 21st July, in aid of Macmillan - with a lovely afternoon tea in their courtyard.

MMMK were welcomed back to Freeman Memorial Methodist Church in Bletchley for our summer concert on 22nd June, quickly followed by The Bean in Stony for the Open Gardens on 23rd June. We also returned to Kents Hill nursing home on 6th July by invitation, all very well received, with thanks.

MMMK were back at StonyLive! 2024, with two sets 1st & 6th  June, with the Stony Riverside Fair in between on 2nd June. Earlier, we gave a rousing start to our new 2024 repertoire in a Spring Concert for St. Mary's Church, Shenley, enjoyed by all!

MMMK have taken part in local events in Stony Stratford and MK, along with some performances for community groups - as part of Stony Live! 2023, and the Stony Stratford Autumn Fayre. We also concluded the year with rousing sing-along festive performances at many events, private and public - much enjoyed by all involved!

MMMK enjoy our festive commitments, including a Christmas Concert on 10th Dec 2022 back at St.Mary & St.Giles Church in Stony Stratford. Our last rehearsal of 2022 also doubled as a sing-along gathering in The Shoulder of Mutton, Calverton on 15th Dec. Some members also joined other local groups for their seasonal collaborations too. Earlier on, we held our successful and rousing Autumn 2022 concert on 8th Oct at the Freeman Memorial Methodist Church in Bletchley.  

MMMK re-started post-lockdowns in 2021, and undertook a more scaled-back Christmas period, with some festive pub sing-a-long sessions.  We had to miss our usual fixtures for Stony Live! 2020 and in 2021 while under restrictions. In 2022, we offered an Open Evening on the 9th June 2022 and followed this up with some busking on 11th June by the lychgate on Stony High Street. Following some great feedback, we'll do similar again!

NOTABLE PAST EVENTS: 

MMMK concluded our earlier joint commitments in 2019 - our annual concert with Brackley Wind Ensemble was preceded with choir members joining Wolverton Light Orchestra for their Christmas Concert. We'd like to thank our previous long-standing music director Brian Dipple for all his efforts on our behalf - vocally, in partnerships, collaborations, and especially with the trips abroad. In particular, our Summer 2019 tour in Germany Rhine & Moselle was a success, with a number of local events beforehand - including variations on our set list with BWE in Westbury.

In our 30th year, we performed jointly with BWE - in Sulgrave Manor prior to our Belgium Tour over Summer 2016, in Ypres, Menin Gate, Bruges and Ghent cathedrals. In the anniversary run-up, we reprised and joined forces with Wendy Kitching's dancers, for a 'Summertime Spectacular' in a return to Stantonbury Theatre in June 2015.
