About Music In The Burnhams

Music in the Burnhams was formed as ‘Music in Thorpe’ in 2021 to promote
music of all genres through a series of concerts held initially in All Saints
Church, Burnham Thorpe, better known as Nelson’s Church. We now hold our concerts in all the churches in the Burnhams as well as at St Mary’s Brancaster (to which we were invited in 2024) and in the beautiful village hall in Burnham Overy Staithe.

Music in the Burnhams is a registered charity and most concerts benefit the village primary school or the local churches. We are particularly proud of our four-day workshop at the local school where the children are coached by graduate students from Trinity Laban College of Music in London. This culminates in a full-scale costumed performance staged at the school. Prior to the workshop most of the school are involved in the preparation of costumes, props or signage and includes as many parents as possible.

During the winter months we also hold several informal Music Supper Clubs held in Burnham Overy Village Hall where we are entertained by great musicians and enjoy a simple supper and a drink or two. We are a very friendly informal group, and you may be assured of a warm welcome at each event.
