These pieces are often to be found in printed sources or discovered in manuscript books known to have been used by church quires and bands.The music this year may well also come from sources wider than just the Mid-Shires.

Mid-Shires' Quires' Day 2024 takes place on Saturday 27 April 2024 in its regular venue, the Village Hall, at Byfield, Northants, NN11 6UT.  Byfield is on the A361, midway between the M40 (Junction 11) and the M1 (Junction 16).

Work is still being carried out for HS2 between Byfield and the adjoining village of Chipping Warden to its south-west towards Banbury. There are roadworks !!

Seating will be sensibly spaced, and for that reason we have decided this year again to limit attendance        to 60 people.

As of 25 March 2024, we have but one place left, so,
as in 2023, a Waiting List will operate once capacity is reached.
 
We need please to receive your form by Thursday 18 April 2024.  
Early applications would be appreciated, especially if you are bringing an instrument
as it helps with the choice of music !
