About the Choir
Craven Arms Men’s Chorus was founded in 1961 and its Musical Director is local musician, Kimee Cleaton. Kimee is also a vocalist, composer and arranger, and as such has provided many arrangements for CAMC to sing, as well as enriching performances with her singing in pieces specially arranged for solo voice and choir.
The choir's accompanist is Graham Shuttleworth, an accomplished pianist who also sings with the choir for our a capella pieces.
Although Craven Arms Men’s Chorus aims to achieve musical excellence whenever possible, it doesn't aim to enter competitions or be at all highbrow, but rather to enjoy itself and hope to entertain its audiences. It has a number of past achievements to its credit, including winning a cup, singing on radio and television, and performing with famous artists like Owen Brannigan, but most importantly, it has raised many thousands of pounds for charitable causes and continues to do so.
New members, with or without any musical experience, are always very welcome.
