Do You Like Music?

Then come and join us

We meet virtually every two weeks on Mondays starting at
7:15 pm and finishing at 9:15 throughout our season in the
Fartown Methodist Church
Spaines Road Huddersfield


If you enjoy listening to music you are bound to find something to your taste. You will probably hear something you have not heard before but then life would be dull if we only listened to the same pieces over and over. All items are introduced by he presenter in an easily understood way - mostly we are not musicians! We are friendly and make newcomers welcome. The room is excellent (warm in winter and acoustically good) and the chairs are reasonably comfortable. So why not come along to a few meetings and see if you enjoy them? They are well varied and cater for a wide variety of tastes. It's better than watching the box most of the time. One of the pleasures of listening to music at our meetings is the shared experience without domestic interruptions. We believe that our standard of sound reproduction is well above that which the average listener has at home. To that end we have invested in equipment of a high standard and, in the excellent acoustic of the church, we attain a very listenable result.
