Choir Overview

ManSong is an inclusive male choir, open to any man who wants to experience the joy and power of singing. We are non-auditioned, everything is taught by ear, and we offer taster sessions with no strings attached. Our repertoire spans a wide range of global genres, from sea shanties to pop, folk songs, world music, and Georgian toasting songs.

We perform regularly, and there are opportunities for members to try solo or small group singing if they wish. Rehearsals are fun, relaxed, and social, beginning with physical stretches, breath and vocal warm-ups, and moving into learning songs in 3-4 part harmonies.
