Baritone Mick Tunney has starred on the national stage and television — the high note in his 16 years at Mansfield and District Male Voice Choir.

Mick was involved in The National Lottery’s Big Night of Musicals at Manchester AO Arena.

As well as being part of the male voice choir, Mick also contributes to Vicky McClure’s Our Dementia Choir, which featured in the concert later broadcast on BBC1.

The famous actress formed a choir of people living with dementia in her hometown of Nottingham to see whether music could make a measurable difference in their lives in 2018.

Initially part of a television documentary, the choir has remained, a testimony to the power of music to bring happiness, connection, and comfort to those affected by dementia.

One of the musical leaders of the choir is Daniela Smith, the daughter of Mansfield and District Male Voice Choir chairman Geoff Hursthouse, who also supports Mick at the dementia choir — bringing to life one of it mottos, Music is Medicine.

Mick proudly took to the stage in Manchester, with Geoff in support, to join famous performer Michael Ball in singing The Impossible Dream from the musical Man of La Mancha.

After the song, concert host Jason Manford and Michael interviewed Mick on stage.
