Welcome to Dursley Male Voice Choir​

The Dursley Male Voice Choir are delighted to announce that  Katie Jenner, a wonderfully fresh, gifted local clarinettist, will be the star guest of their Annual Concerts in May 2020.
Katie is an exceptionally talented, young musician, currently in her 4th and final year of a scholarship place at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire where she is privileged to be studying the clarinet with Douglas Mitchell and Anna Hashimoto. In her third year, she studied abroad at the Royal Conservatoire of The Hague, as part of the Erasmus programme.
While at the Birmingham Conservatoire, Katie has been in a range of orchestral projects including playing in the Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla, as part of the Gala Opening Concert of the new conservatoire building. Katie was a member of the National Youth Wind Orchestra of Great Britain for two years, where she attended for four courses including a tour to Switzerland in August 2018.
More recently, Katie has become very involved in music education and outreach work; in particular as a volunteer for a number of charities providing therapeutic music in care homes and hospitals and with a primary school in Churchdown with the Cheltenham Music Festivals Musicate programme.
More than anything, Katie is passionate about providing live music to those who have limited access to it, as well as using music to improve people’s lives.
Outside of the Conservatoire, Katie is an Army Reserve Musician in The Band of the Mercian Regiment and regularly plays for a local hockey club in Birmingham.

Dursley & the Choir
Dursley is a market town situated about halfway between Gloucester and Bristol on the South West edge of the picturesque Cotswolds. In the Middle Ages it was a centre for cloth making and more recently the local firm R A Lister became known throughout the world for its industrial engines.

The Dursley Male Voice Choir was founded by a group of enthusiastic singers in 1978 and has since grown to be one of the principal male choirs of the region with up to 70 singers drawn from all over the area 
(see History). As well as local concerts the choir has performed at many venues around the UK, and internationally while on tour.

Why not visit us?  You are assured of a warm, friendly welcome and you may well decide to become a member of the choir.

To hear us just listen to our music or come to one of our concerts.
