Past History
The Needwood Singers began over 40 years ago as an evening class with just four members, and has grown over the years to over thirty, with Soprano, Alto, Tenor and Bass voices. The group was formed in 1972, when a resident of Barton under Needwood requested Stanley Langford to take over a night school choral class at the John Taylor High School. Of course he agreed, and that resident became one of the four founder members of the Needwood Singers. The numbers gradually increased over the years.
Some memorable concerts have been held with chamber orchestra and professional soloists:
Handel’s Samson at St Peters Church Stapenhill.
Magical Magnificats at Shenstone St Johns.
