A line-up full of local talent
The concert features a mix of established singers, young performers and instrumental musicians. That variety is a big part of the appeal.
On the bill are:
Haydock Male Voice Choir
The Lancashire Artillery Band
St Bartholomew's Youth Choir
The Sankey Singers
Amelie Mack, guest soloist and mezzo-soprano from the Royal Academy of Music, London
That’s a generous line-up for a £10 ticket. It also gives the evening a lovely balance. Male voice choir singing has its own warmth and strength. A band brings power, energy and colour. Youth voices add freshness. A guest soloist gives the room a moment of pause and reflection with a beautiful single voice .
If you’ve been searching for a Choral Variety Concert in the St Helens area, this is very much one to put in your diary.
Haydock Male Voice Choir will help lead the night
Haydock Male Voice Choir sits at the heart of the event. Male voice choirs have a special place in community music across this part of the country, and there’s a reason people keep coming back to hear us.
Brass, youth voices and guest performers add real range
One of the best things about this event is that it isn’t built around one sound all night. It brings different performers together, so the programme can move between bold, gentle, uplifting and reflective moments.
The Lancashire Artillery Band will bring the instrumental side of the evening. Brass and concert band music has a way of filling a civic hall beautifully. It can be bright and stirring one minute, then soft and lyrical the next. That change in tone gives a concert real shape.
St Bartholomew's Youth Choir brings young voices into the mix. Youth choirs often add a different kind of energy to a concert. There’s the joy of seeing younger performers grow in confidence, but there’s also real musical value in hearing lighter voices alongside adult choirs and instrumental groups.
The Sankey Singers add another choral voice to the programme. Having more than one choir involved gives the audience a broader evening, with different textures and styles rather than a single repeated format.
Then there’s Amelie Mack, guest soloist and mezzo-soprano from the Royal Academy of Music, London. A trained mezzo-soprano voice can bring richness, expression and drama to a solo performance. It’s a lovely addition to a community concert, and it gives the evening an extra point of interest.
For anyone looking up the line-up, expect local favourites and young talent alongside names people may search for in different ways, including Lancashire brass band music, Haydock Male Voice Choir, St Bartholomew's Youth Choir, The Sankey Singers and Amelie Mack mezzo-soprano.
Why the Cause matters
The concert supports the Hargreaves Dementia Trust, and that gives the evening a deeper purpose.
Dementia affects not only the person living with it, but also partners, families, friends and carers. Many local families know the worry, sadness and practical strain that can come with it. Support can make a real difference, whether that comes through care, advice, understanding, community projects or simply keeping the subject visible.
Every ticket helps support the Hargreaves Dementia Trust, turning a night of music into a practical show of care.
