I'm delighted to be taking on the @PhoenixSingers4 in Framlingham from this September.
A great choir who have benefitted so much from @geoff_lavery 's wonderful influence for many years.
A tough act to follow, but I'm looking forward to giving it a good go!
We're delighted to announce the appointment of Tom Appleton as our new Music Director. Tom will lead the choir from Autumn 2026, starting with our 50th Anniversary Concert in December. We look forward to an exciting new musical chapter!

Need funding for that dream project?
I've just added a new page to my website to reflect that I can help you get grant funding.
Whilst I was there, I've refreshed the whole site so you're welcome to have a good schnuffle around!

We are hugely saddened to learn of the death of our President Emeritus, Sir Humphrey Burton.
Humphrey gave 15 years as President of AMC and we will miss him hugely.
A great friend of the club. We send our love to his family and all who cherished him.

Unfortunately, we have made the (not very) difficult decision to cancel tomorrow morning's 'Carols on the Beach' event in Aldeburgh.
'Tempest, Storm, and Wind'.....
Stay safe, all.
But you can catch us at Orford Church on the 14th. Do join us there!

A joy to be part of the team conducting at the @RoyalAlbertHall @musicforyouth Proms last week.
Great to work with so many talented and committed children and young people, their teachers, the crew, producers, and fellow mentors.
Top work team!
