Funeral singers and choirs in Manchester
Manchester is a city of deep musical heritage, from the free trade halls that once rang with orchestral sound to the parish churches woven into communities across Greater Manchester. Whether you are planning a funeral, a wedding, or a memorial, our conservatoire-trained singers and instrumentalists bring warmth, beauty, and quiet professionalism to every occasion in this remarkable city and its surrounding boroughs.
Funeral music in Manchester
Losing someone you love is overwhelming, and choosing music for a funeral can feel like one more impossible decision at an already difficult time. We are here to help. Our singers perform at funerals and memorial services in churches, crematoriums, and secular venues right across Greater Manchester. From a lone soprano voice singing Pie Jesu in a quiet chapel to a four-part choir lifting the roof with Dear Lord and Father of Mankind, we tailor every performance to the wishes of the family.
We regularly sing at Manchester Cathedral, at churches across Salford, Stockport, Trafford, Bolton, and Bury, and at the city’s principal crematoriums — Manchester Crematorium, Agecroft Crematorium, and Blackley Crematorium. If you are unsure which pieces would suit the service, our funeral music guide offers suggestions for hymns, solos, and choral works that families often find comforting. We are always happy to talk things through by telephone as well — there is never any obligation.
Wedding choirs and singers
Manchester and Greater Manchester offer a wonderful variety of wedding venues, from grand Victorian churches to converted mills and contemporary spaces along the waterfront. Live singing transforms a ceremony — a well-chosen hymn brings a congregation together, and a beautifully performed solo can hold the room in a way that recorded music simply cannot. Our choirs and soloists perform at weddings of every size and tradition, and we are happy to learn new repertoire if there is a piece that holds special meaning for you. If you are still deciding on your music, our guide to choosing wedding hymns is a good place to start.
Ensembles and pricing
We offer everything from a single soloist to a full choir of twelve voices, and can pair singers with an organist, harpist, or string quartet. Each musician is personally selected from our roster of over 150 conservatoire-trained performers. Because every occasion is different, we encourage you to tell us a little about what you have in mind so we can suggest the right ensemble and provide an accurate quote. Full details of our standard packages are available on our pricing page.
