Our final term after 34 glorious years!!
This informal weekly group has been going, in one form or another, since 1991, led by Faith throughout. With Faith’s move to Wales this summer, next term will be the final term for Manchester Larks and we intend to make it a total celebration!
There will just be 6 sessions (see below for dates) and each one will be a standalone celebration of our favourite songs.
If you’ve ever come along to Manchester Larks over the last 34 years, please do join us for at least one of these sessions.
If you have chance to do so, email Faith: singingforlarks@gmail.com (by 23rd September) and let us know when you’re coming. Also tell us your 8 favourite Manchester Larks songs. We’ll do our best to include some of everyone’s favourites.

“Singing for Larks – the name says it all really – making lovely music with other singers and having lots of fun – aided and abetted by the talented Faith Watson. Singing with the Manchester Larks group is always a rewarding experience, including outbursts of hilarity as well as magical meditative moments when our voices truly blend together. It’s great to learn new songs each term as well as revisiting old favourites and although some songs can be quite a challenge, there’s a real sense of achievement when we master them. What more can I say? It’s just the best way I know of spending a Tuesday evening!”
