About this Event
International Concert
Chester Male Voice Choir are delighted to welcome, from Australia, The Perth Male Voice Choir. The choir arrive in the UK and their first stop is Chester, where they will perform with the Chester Male Voice Choir in concert.
The Perth Male Voice Choir from Western Australia has been performing for over 98 years and currently has over 60 members. The Choir performs for a variety of events in and around Perth averaging over twenty concerts including a number of charity events most years.
The Choir undertook its first overseas tour of the UK in 2018, performing five concerts in South Wales, including in St David’s Cathedral and then the Cotswolds. The Choir then performed at the Albert Hall as part of the London Welsh Festival of Male Choirs with 16 other male choirs from around the world. This year we are touring Chester and North Wales with concerts in Chester, Llandudno, Llanfairfechan, Betws y Coed, Beaumaris, and Caernarfon.
Although it is not a Welsh Choir, it sings in the Welsh tradition of four-part harmony with a piano accompaniment and includes a number of songs in Welsh in its varied repertoire.
The Choir is not an auditioned choir and whilst some singing experience and an ability to read music are desirable, they are not essential. The most important attribute is enthusiasm. Our annual events such as music festivals, St David’s Day, the Welsh free Church’s Gymanfa Ganu and traditional pub “afterglows” adds to the sense of camaraderie and community.
