Melbourne Welsh Male Choir

The Melbourne Welsh Male Voice Choir was formed in 1984 and since then it has grown from a small group of enthusiastic singers into one of Australia’s acclaimed male choirs.

There is a warm and welcoming culture within the choir and while we take our singing seriously, we don’t take ourselves seriously at all. In fact, we have a lot of fun!

The choir is busy with 8-10 performances each year, including performing at major venues such as the Melbourne Recital Centre. It is also well organised with a very capable and active organising committee.

The choir honours its Welsh roots by singing at least 25% of its repertoire in the Welsh language, Europe’s oldest living language. However, as a proud multicultural Australian Welsh choir we believe that good music is not limited to one language. Consequently recent concerts have included Welsh, English, South African, Italian, Latin, Maori, Aboriginal and German songs.

Many of our performances feature experienced and talented professional guest artists and each year we organise and run the Singer of the Year competition for promising young singers.

With regular national and international tours, this is a choir that is energetic and with a growing reputation for excellence.

Not bad for a bunch of blokes of varying musical experience, who simply like to get together each week to have a sing.
