What  audiences have said to us

Friday 28th June 2024 - Holy Trinity Church 
Minchinhampton

Dear Helen, Janet, Matt  and Stuart Singers,


Thank you so much for your wonderfully lively and enthusiastic performance on Friday evening .  I think the event well demonstrated  the wide-ranging talent for choral singing that we have in our community and gave us all a pleasant social event for the end of season before the summer break.


  I know from all the comments we've had that the audience greatly enjoyed the whole evening and the variety, quality and energy  of the singing and also the relaxed picnic atmosphere so different from the usual concerts held in church.


Lena and I are very proud to have a long association with the Stuart Singers -     as  I said at the end of the concert, we were at the very first gathering and rehearsal at Stuart House  and it's wonderful to have seen the choir grow in numbers, in confidence and in choral quality - always entertaining, never less than a high standard of performance, always cheerful and always raising funds for good works.  Thank you all for years of sparkling entertainment and for supporting Music for a Summer's Evening on Friday.


Very best wishes for next season and happy summer holidays for everyone.


Yours,   Lena and David Homer

Good Morning,


I just wanted to express our thanks to all the Stuart Singers for joining us in last night's concert.  
It was a great event and I've heard nothing but praise from everyone I spoke to afterwards.  
Good also to be able to add another £3000 to our charity raising totals.  
Please pass on my thanks to the rest of the choir.  
I'm sure we'll do it again sometime.


I must mention that, despite some scepticisim, the joint Rhythm of Life number 
with two conductors went amazingly well - well done to you Helen as well as Barrie and Matt!


Best regards

Nailsworth 9th April - with the Wyndham Singers

"Thank you so much to the Stuart Singers & visiting Wyndham singers for such a wonderful concert.    It was such a joy to listen to  wonderful voices and harmonies, and also very emotional!

Thank you so much for your donation to our fundraising, which is greatly appreciated.  Great news also about the retiring collection as well and the contribution from Lou and her mum from the Sunflowers.   

We would very much like to take up your offer of a future concert and your generosity in offering your services for our fundraising efforts.   Could we put a date in the diary?    Fitting in with your other concerts, is there a good time for this?

Would you be happy for me to put the photo of the choir on our church board and website?  

Wishing you a Happy and blessed Easter season."

Light up a Life 17th December - Supporting Longfield Community Hospice

" I just wanted to send you an email to say thank you very much for your help at Friday evenings Light up a Life Celebration.  Our Light up a Life events and appeal are an important part of our fundraising calendar, which has so far raised £13,500 for the Hospice this year.

The choir sang so beautifully and we received so many wonderful comments on how the Stuart Singer brought the service to life – thank you.  Please pass my thanks on to all those in the choir who came along to sing, it was very much appreciated.

The service was poignant for those who attended and who feel the loss of their loved ones intensely over the festive season and it felt lovely this year to be able to provide that opportunity for supporters to remember and celebrate family and friends who are no longer with us. 

Thank you again for your help and for being a part of something so special."
