Welcome to the Wellington Male Voice Choir website

The Wellington Male Voice Choir is a community choir, singing sacred and secular songs in traditional style (both accompanied and unaccompanied). We share many attributes in common with male choirs in other countries (Wales in particular), but attempt to present our own interpretation of the music we sing.

The choir has a strong tradition of fellowship, and strives for high quality singing.

The choir presents two public concerts each year, and sings by invitation at other venues and events. Members are drawn from throughout the Greater Wellington Region and the Kapiti Coast.

Tours

In September 2003 we made our first overseas tour; with concerts at Orange NSW, Melbourne and at the "Sing Out" festival in Narrogin, Western Australia. Our major tour for 2004 was to attend the triennial New Zealand Festival of Male Voice Choirs
to be held in Hamilton, 10–12 September 2004: Viva voices.

During 2008 our tour focus was again to Nelson for the Festival of Male Choirs during Labour weekend, 25–27 October 2008, hosted by the Nelson Male Choir with the Sydney Male Choir also participating.

Our second tour to Australia was made on 11–21 November 2010, taking in a massed choir concert at Sydney, and joint concerts with local choirs at Orange, Inverell and Sunshine Coast.
